TV channels & antenna towers in Seymour, Tennessee

Seymour is a city of about 10,900 people in Tennessee. There are 51 licensed TV transmitters within 70 miles: 12 full-power, 7 low-power and 32 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.

13 of them are within 25 miles of Seymour, 14 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 24 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 7 network stations in range are licensed to Knoxville, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Knoxville's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 6 (WATE-TV), CBS on channel 8 (WVLT-TV), NBC on channel 10 (WBIR-TV), Fox on channel 43 (WTNZ), CW on channel 20 (WBXX-TV) and ION on channel 54 (WPXK-TV). 5 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna WNW, at about 301°. The main network towers for Seymour sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Five network stations, WBIR-TV, WPXK-TV, WATE-TV, WTNZ and WVLT-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 14 miles northwest of Seymour (303° WNW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Seymour at fair strength or better, 86% 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 Seymour, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

The farthest main network tower for Seymour is WTNZ (Fox), 15 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

WPXK-TV is only 14 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, Seymour ranks 63rd of 299 places in Tennessee: more than the typical Tennessee town (15). Its nearest major network tower is 14 miles away, against a state median of 23 miles.
