The main network towers around Hart are in different directions: ABC 167° SSE (61 mi), CBS 14° NNE (65 mi), NBC 14° NNE (68 mi) and Fox 14° NNE (68 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Four network stations, KCBD, KXTQ-CD, KLCW-TV and KJTV-CD, transmit from the same tower site about 63 miles south of Hart (167° SSE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Hart at fair strength or better, 83% arrive from the north; the rest are spread across one other direction.

KAMC (ABC), KFDA-TV (CBS), KAMR-TV (NBC) and KCIT (Fox) lie beyond the radio horizon of their transmitter as seen from Hart. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

The farthest main network tower for Hart is KCIT (Fox), 68 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

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.

With 6 stations at fair strength or better, Hart ranks 805th of 1,039 places in Texas: fewer than the typical Texas town (14). Its nearest major network tower is 55 miles away, against a state median of 26 miles.

32% of Texas's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an outdoor directional antenna. The nearest larger city is Plainview, 27 miles away.
