Which way to point your antenna in Edgeworth
Point your antenna ESE, at about 120°. The main network towers for Edgeworth sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.
Three network stations, KDKA-TV, WPGH-TV and WPNT, transmit from the same tower site about 10.0 miles southeast of Edgeworth (113° ESE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.
Of the 12 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Edgeworth at fair strength or better, 33% arrive from the southeast; the rest are spread across three other directions.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Edgeworth, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Edgeworth
The farthest main network tower for Edgeworth is WTAE-TV (ABC), 28 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.
KDKA-TV is only 10.0 miles away with a strong signal. Signals that strong can overload an amplifier, so start without one and add it only if distant channels are missing. Read when an amplifier helps.
