TV channels & antenna towers in Sharon, Pennsylvania

Sharon is a town of about 13,600 people in Pennsylvania. There are 66 licensed TV transmitters within 70 miles: 30 full-power, 10 Class A, 23 low-power and 3 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 18 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 6 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 6 transmitters are within 25 miles, 5 between 25 and 45 miles, and 55 farther out. Five of the 22 network stations in range are licensed to Pittsburgh, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Pittsburgh's stations.

For the networks, the best local options are ABC on channel 33 (WYTV), CBS on channel 2 (KDKA-TV), NBC on channel 11 (WPXI), Fox on channel 27.2 (WKBN-TV), CW on channel 21.2 (WFMJ-TV), ION on channel 23 (WVPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 6 (WTCL-LD) and Univision on channel 61 (WQHS-DT). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (very weak signal) and Univision (fair signal). 10 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 SSW, at about 213°. The main network towers for Sharon sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Three network stations, WFMJ-TV, WYTV and WKBN-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 13 miles southwest of Sharon (216° SW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 14 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Sharon at fair strength or better, 36% arrive from the west; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Sharon is WKBN-TV (Fox), 15 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

KDKA-TV (CBS), 57 miles southeast and WPXI (NBC), 59 miles southeast, 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.

WFMJ-TV is only 13 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.

With 18 stations at fair strength or better, Sharon ranks 674th of 1,015 places in Pennsylvania: fewer than the typical Pennsylvania town (24). Its nearest major network tower is 13 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.

37% of Pennsylvania's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an indoor antenna. The nearest larger city is Youngstown, 12 miles away.
