Of the 4 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Jasper at fair strength or better, 75% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across one other direction.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Jasper
The farthest main network tower for Jasper is KVHP (ABC), 50 miles away with a good 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.
