Which way to point your antenna in Isabel Segunda

The main network towers around Isabel Segunda are in different directions: ABC 120° ESE (55 mi), NBC 267° W (40 mi) and Fox 66° ENE (36 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

WCVI-TV (ABC) lies beyond the radio horizon of its transmitter as seen from Isabel Segunda. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Isabel Segunda

The farthest main network tower for Isabel Segunda is WCVI-TV (ABC), 55 miles away with a very 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.

At this distance a low-noise preamplifier mounted on the mast, right below the antenna, helps more than an amplifier near the TV. It boosts the signal before cable loss eats into it. See the amplifier guide.
