Which way to point your antenna in Anton
Point your antenna SE, at about 139°. The main network towers for Anton sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.
Seven network stations, KLBK-TV, KAMC, KJTV-TV, KCBD and KXTQ-CD and others, transmit from the same tower site about 26 miles southeast of Anton (139° SE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.
Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Anton at fair strength or better, all arrive from the southeast, so this is an easy place to aim.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Anton, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Anton
The farthest main network tower for Anton is KCBD (NBC), 27 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.
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.
