No ABC affiliate is listed within 70 miles; the nearest one in our data is KVIH-TV in Clovis, NM, 138 miles to the southwest. 1 full-power station in range has no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna SSW, at about 211°. The main network towers for Fritch sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Two network stations, KAMR-TV and KCIT, transmit from the same tower site about 24 miles southwest of Fritch (211° SSW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 5 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Fritch at fair strength or better, all arrive from the southwest, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Fritch is KFDA-TV (CBS), 28 miles away with a fair 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.
