Well, I live 100 miles away from the locals and have been patiently waiting. Now I will be inpatiently waiting since my distance makes the "ota antenna promotion" worthless to me. I have had 2 installers tell me it doesn't matter what antenna I get, I won't be getting any hd locals out of OKC. Anyone here know any different?
I live in Blackwell,OK.
Your closest digitals are in Wichita KS, about 70 miles, just slightly west of north.
KSNW-DT NBC frequency 45, 891 kW
KSAS-DT FOX frequency 26, 350kW
KAKE-DT ABC frequency 21, 850kW
KWCV-DT was WB frequency 31, 1000kW
For all UHF reception try a Channel Master 4228 with a CM7777 pre-amp mounted up as high as possible. You will probably not get solid reception, but especially under favorable atmospheric conditions, it should work. If you need an antenna with less wind load, the Antennas Direct 91XG is an excellent yagi with reflector, very similar in performance to 4228.
Oklahoma City stations are about 85 miles due south of you. If you want both you'll need a rotator also.
Tulsa towers are 90 miles ESE.
Ignore the colors, I cheated and put the antenna on a 1000 ft tower for calculation purposes but there is an antennaweb calc.
