Which way to point your antenna in Doffing

Point your antenna ESE, at about 109°. The main network towers for Doffing sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Three network stations, KVEO-TV, KRGV-TV and KMBH, transmit from the same tower site about 36 miles east of Doffing (109° ESE). 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 Doffing at fair strength or better, 57% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Doffing

The farthest main network tower for Doffing is KVEO-TV (NBC), 36 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

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.

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