With roughly 4,120 residents, Kenmar is a town in Pennsylvania. Our map shows 45 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 18 full-power, 5 Class A, 13 low-power and 9 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 13 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 4 at good or strong strength.
3 of them are within 25 miles of Kenmar, 6 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 36 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 14 network stations in range are licensed to Scranton, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Scranton's stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Kenmar
The main network towers around Kenmar are in different directions: ABC 95° E (57 mi), CBS 95° E (57 mi), NBC 95° E (57 mi) and Fox 176° S (63 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.
Four network stations, WYOU, WBRE-TV, WNEP-TV and WOLF-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 57 miles east of Kenmar (95° E). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.
Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Kenmar at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across three other directions.
WPMT (Fox) lies beyond the radio horizon of its transmitter as seen from Kenmar. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Kenmar
The farthest main network tower for Kenmar is WPMT (Fox), 63 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.
At this distance a low-noise preamplifier mounted on the mast, right below the antenna, helps more than an amplifier near the TV. It boosts the signal before cable loss eats into it. See the amplifier guide.

Setting up an antenna in Kenmar: step by step
- Mount an outdoor antenna on the roof or a mast, as high as you can safely get it, with a clear view toward the towers.
- Point it toward 176° S, the direction of WPMT (Fox), 63 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
- Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
- Expect around 13 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
- Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
