Over-the-air TV in Naples

With roughly 1,340 residents, Naples is a small community in Texas. Our map shows 25 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 10 full-power, 1 Class A, 13 low-power and 1 translator. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 9 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 5 at good or strong strength.

0 of them are within 25 miles of Naples, 4 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 21 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 9 network stations in range are licensed to Shreveport, LA, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Shreveport's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 3 (KTBS-TV), CBS on channel 12 (KSLA), NBC on channel 6 (KTAL-TV), Fox on channel 33 (KMSS-TV), CW on channel 21 (KPXJ) and ION on channel 45.3 (KSHV-TV). 2 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Naples

Point your antenna SE, at about 127°. The main network towers for Naples sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Five network stations, KTBS-TV, KPXJ, KSLA, KMSS-TV and KSHV-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 56 miles southeast of Naples (129° SE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 8 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Naples at fair strength or better, 75% arrive from the southeast; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Naples

The farthest main network tower for Naples is KMSS-TV (Fox), 57 miles away with a good 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.

Setting up an antenna in Naples: step by step

  1. Mount an outdoor antenna on the roof or a mast, as high as you can safely get it, with a clear view toward the towers.
  2. Point it toward 130° SE, the direction of KMSS-TV (Fox), 57 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
  4. Expect around 9 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
