Which way to point your antenna in Lebanon South

The main network towers around Lebanon South are in different directions: NBC 209° SSW (23 mi) and Fox 273° W (24 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Three network stations, WPMT, WXBU and WHP-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 24 miles west of Lebanon South (273° W). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 14 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Lebanon South at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across three other directions.

All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Lebanon South, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Lebanon South

The farthest main network tower for Lebanon South is WPMT (Fox), 24 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WNEP-TV (ABC), 65 miles northeast and KYW-TV (CBS), 65 miles east, are the exception: the nearest listed affiliates of those networks are far enough away to need an outdoor antenna. Some local stations in our data carry no network tag, so check the other stations table below before buying a bigger antenna just for those.

An amplifier only helps here if you run a long cable (over about 50 feet) or split the antenna to several TVs. Otherwise better placement does more. See the amplifier guide.
