TV channels & antenna towers in Woodruff, South Carolina

Woodruff is a town of about 4,130 people in South Carolina. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 39 licensed TV transmitters: 15 full-power, 1 Class A, 5 low-power and 18 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 18 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 10 at good or strong strength.

1 of them is within 25 miles of Woodruff, 16 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 22 are more than 45 miles out. Two of the 9 network stations in range are licensed to Asheville, NC, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Asheville's stations.

The strongest network signals here are ABC on channel 13 (WLOS), CBS on channel 3 (WBTV), NBC on channel 4 (WYFF), Fox on channel 46 (WJZY) and CW on channel 55 (WMYT-TV). 6 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

The main network towers around Woodruff are in different directions: ABC 320° NW (62 mi), CBS 48° NE (65 mi), NBC 309° NW (41 mi) and Fox 49° NE (66 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Two network stations, WYCW and WSPA-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 33 miles northwest of Woodruff (334° NNW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Woodruff at fair strength or better, 56% arrive from the northwest; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

The farthest main network tower for Woodruff is WJZY (Fox), 66 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

WMYA-TV is only 15 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, Woodruff ranks 45th of 244 places in South Carolina: more than the typical South Carolina town (15). Its nearest major network tower is 33 miles away, against a state median of 25 miles.
