Recommended for South Fulton

An indoor antenna should work in South Fulton

Antenna type: Indoor, with VHF reception.

WXIA-TV (NBC, channel 11.1) broadcasts on VHF, so choose an antenna rated for VHF as well as UHF.

How to choose an antenna for VHF channels

  • ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS and The CW are all within 19 miles
  • The main towers sit northeast, so one aim works

Do you need an amplifier?

Try without an amplifier first. Add one only if channels break up. The farthest main network station, WUPA, is 18 miles away.

Splitting the signal to more TVs weakens it at each one. One antenna, several TVs

Where to point your antenna

Aim east-northeast (57°). Rings at 5, 10 and 30 miles from central South Fulton; dots are Strong-signal towers.

5 mi 10 mi 30 mi N E S W Main towers WAGA-TV +11 WTHC-LD WGTV
  • WSB-TV, WPBA, WXIA-TV and WAGA-TV and 19 other stations: 15 to 28 miles northeast
  • WTHC-LD: 16 miles south-southeast

Placement and interference tips

  • Place the antenna on an east-northeast-facing window or wall. Higher is better.
  • LED bulbs, especially older or cheaper ones, can interfere. If reception gets worse when the lights are on, that's the cause.
  • Living near a cell tower? An LTE filter can block the interference.
  • Trees and hills block signals (Cord Cutters News covers these and the LED and cell tower problems), and so do metal roofs and foil radiant barriers in attics (Solid Signal). Move the antenna away from them if you can.

NextGen TV in South Fulton

NextGen TV (ATSC 3.0) is on the air in South Fulton, broadcast from WANF, WPCH-TV and WSB-TV. Any antenna receives it.

  • Your current TV keeps working. Today's broadcasts continue alongside NextGen TV: full-power stations that switch must keep simulcasting their main channel in today's format (CommLawCenter).
  • You need an ATSC 3.0 tuner to watch it. That means a TV or tuner box with one built in. Most TVs don't have one (PCWorld).
  • Some channels are encrypted. Some broadcasters encrypt their NextGen TV channels, and some tuners and DVRs can't play encrypted channels yet. HDHomeRun devices are one example (Antenna Land). Check before you buy, especially a DVR.
  • No shutoff date yet. Broadcasters have asked the FCC to end today's broadcasts in large markets around 2028 and everywhere around 2030. The FCC hasn't set a date (PCWorld).
