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

The farthest main network tower for Medina is WJKT (Fox), 18 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

WBBJ-TV is only 12 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.
