Eight network stations, KPXD-TV, KUVN-DT, KDTX-TV, KAZD and KDFW and others, transmit from the same tower site about 41 miles south of Oak Point (179° S). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Oak Point

The farthest main network tower for Oak Point is KTVT (CBS), 45 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

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.
