Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 12 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 4 at good or strong strength.

1 of them is within 25 miles of Beeville, 1 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 34 are more than 45 miles out. Seven of the 19 network stations in range are licensed to San Antonio, so most of the network channels you will find here come from San Antonio's stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Beeville

The main network towers around Beeville are in different directions: ABC 51° NE (49 mi), CBS 333° NNW (68 mi), NBC 169° S (45 mi) and Fox 333° NNW (69 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Seven network stations, KSAT-TV, KENS, WOAI-TV, KWEX-DT and KHCE-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 67 miles northwest of Beeville (333° NNW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 11 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Beeville at fair strength or better, 45% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across two other directions.

KENS (CBS) and KABB (Fox) lie beyond the radio horizon of their transmitter as seen from Beeville. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Beeville

The farthest main network tower for Beeville is KABB (Fox), 69 miles away with a fair 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.
