8 of them are within 25 miles of Clover, 10 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 17 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 8 network stations in range are licensed to Charlotte, NC, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Charlotte's stations.

The main network towers around Clover are in different directions: ABC 70° ENE (30 mi), CBS 7° N (18 mi), NBC 11° N (17 mi) and Fox 13° NNE (18 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Of the 8 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Clover at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the north; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Clover is WSOC-TV (ABC), 30 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

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.
