Which way to point your antenna in Savannah

Point your antenna NW, at about 314°. The main network towers for Savannah sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Savannah

The farthest main network tower for Savannah is WJKT (Fox), 62 miles away with a weak estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

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.

Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).

Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
