Antennas Direct | TV Transmitter Locator and Mapping Tool (2024)

Our mapping tool will allow you to view the TV transmitters in your area. Using this tool, you will see the radius patterns showing the distance ofcoverage between your location and the broadcast towers. The towers are shown by black markers on the map, and you can click on each tower to see the affiliate, band, latitude, longitude, and heading for each transmitter. Certain variables unrelated to the antennas performance can affect reception, such as terrain, tall buildings, and trees. Call our Connection Crew or chat with us online if you need assistance with choosing the best TV antenna for your location.
