By distance, 1 transmitter is within 25 miles, 17 between 25 and 45 miles, and 9 farther out. Four of the 9 network stations in range are licensed to Seattle, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Seattle's stations.

Spanish-language viewers can pick up Univision (good signal). 7 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna SSW, at about 207°. The main network towers for Lochsloy sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Four network stations, KING-TV, KIRO-TV, KUNS-TV and KOMO-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 33 miles southwest of Lochsloy (207° SSW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Lochsloy at fair strength or better, 78% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Lochsloy is KOMO-TV (ABC), 33 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

KCPQ (Fox), 50 miles southwest, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is far enough away to need an outdoor antenna. Some local stations in our data carry no network tag, so check the other stations table below before buying a bigger antenna just for that one.

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.

With 16 stations at fair strength or better, Lochsloy ranks 210th of 398 places in Washington: fewer than the typical Washington town (17). Its nearest major network tower is 33 miles away, against a state median of 19 miles.
