WVXF (Fox) lies beyond the radio horizon of its transmitter as seen from El Negro. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

The farthest main network tower for El Negro is WVXF (Fox), 63 miles away with a weak estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

WAPA-TV is only 14 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.
