Questions about NBC on antenna

What channel is NBC on antenna?
It depends on where you live: each city has its own NBC station with its own number. NBC is 4.1 in New York, 4.1 in Los Angeles, 5.1 in Chicago, 10.1 in Philadelphia, 5.1 in Dallas-Fort Worth. Enter your ZIP code to see the NBC station you can actually receive.
Can I get NBC with an antenna?
Yes, free, in 195 of the 210 US TV markets. Markets with no local NBC station: Columbus OH, Norfolk-Portsmouth-Newport News, Salisbury, Jackson TN, Watertown, Alexandria LA, Greenwood-Greenville, Great Falls, Twin Falls, Casper-Riverton, Mankato, Victoria, Juneau, Glendive, Puerto Rico. There, NBC may come from a neighboring city's tower or only through cable and streaming.
Why can't I get NBC with my antenna?
Run a channel rescan first: stations move frequencies. Then check your antenna points toward your NBC station's tower and is high enough for your distance. In 51 markets the NBC signal is on VHF, which many flat indoor antennas pick up poorly.
