With roughly 7,440 residents, Middletown is a town in Pennsylvania. Our map shows 73 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 39 full-power, 11 Class A, 15 low-power and 8 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 31 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 16 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 6 transmitters are within 25 miles, 27 between 25 and 45 miles, and 40 farther out. Five of the 21 network stations in range are licensed to Philadelphia, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Philadelphia's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 16 (WNEP-TV), CBS on channel 3 (KYW-TV), NBC on channel 10 (WCAU), Fox on channel 29 (WTXF-TV), CW on channel 17 (WPHL-TV), ION on channel 61 (WPPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 62 (WWSI), Univision on channel 65 (WUVP-DT) and MeTV on channel 69.3 (WFMZ-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal) and Univision (good signal). 18 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna S, at about 173°. The main network towers for Middletown sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Nine network stations, WPVI-TV, WPPX-TV, KYW-TV, WUVP-DT and WPHL-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 42 miles south of Middletown (173° S). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 20 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Middletown at fair strength or better, 45% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across four other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Middletown is WTXF-TV (Fox), 42 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WNEP-TV (ABC), 47 miles northwest, 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.

With 31 stations at fair strength or better, Middletown ranks 99th of 1,015 places in Pennsylvania: more than the typical Pennsylvania town (24). Its nearest major network tower is 7.9 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.

44% of Pennsylvania's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna. The nearest larger city is Bethlehem, 2.4 miles away.
