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.

- Point it toward 130° SE, the direction of KMSS-TV (Fox), 57 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
- Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
- 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.
