4 of them are within 25 miles of Loganville, 18 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 30 are more than 45 miles out. Nine of the 21 network stations in range are licensed to Washington, DC, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Washington's stations.

Five network stations, WNUV, WBFF, WJZ-TV, WMAR-TV and WBAL-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 36 miles south of Loganville (175° S). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Loganville

The farthest main network tower for Loganville is WJZ-TV (CBS), 36 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WETA-TV (PBS), 66 miles south, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is 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 that one.

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.

Setting up an antenna in Loganville: step by step

  1. Mount the antenna in the attic or high on the wall facing the towers, keeping the cable to the TV as short as you can.
  2. Point it toward 175° S, the direction of WJZ-TV (CBS), 36 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
  4. Expect around 20 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
