Reception of KETK-NBC calls for an outdoor mounted antenna. A Winegard HD7698P and Antennas Direct CPA-19 is one option. Point toward 325° to begin with.
If you have nearby trees, you'll benefit from additional mounting height if you are able to do so practically and safely.

For the reception of , KHTM-LP 13 / KIBN-LP 14 / Family Network , KTRE 9 ABC , KFXL-LP 29 FOX , KLNK-LD 48 Famila Network , KLNM-LD 42 TBN , KYTX 18 CBS , KETK-DT 22 NBC. And the digital sub channels of the listed channels. Install a Winegard HD7698P antenna with a Winegard HDP-269 preamp aimed at 330 degree magnetic compass. The HD7698P antenna receives channels 7 thru 13 and 14 thru 69. KHTM is on channel 13 , KTRE is on channel 9 so your location needs a antenna that receives both VHF Hi channels 7 thru 13 and UHF channels 14 thru 69 -> the HD7698P antenna.
