TV reception in Appin
Free-to-air TV in Appin comes from the Illawarra main transmitter at Knights Hill, 47.5 km to the S (bearing 190°). It broadcasts on UHF (channels 28–51) channels 35, 36, 38, 39, horizontally polarised.
At this distance a high-gain UHF antenna is the standard fit; homes in dips or behind ridgelines often also need a masthead amplifier.
Pockets of Appin shadowed from Illawarra can use the Sydney South West translator (11.9 km WNW, UHF channels 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, H polarisation), which needs a UHF antenna pointed the other way, a common cause of "wrong antenna" reception faults after DIY installs.
Channels from Illawarra

| 35 | ABC35 | 578.5 | UHF | Horizontal |
| 36 | WIN36 | 585.5 | UHF | Horizontal |
| 38 | CBN38 | 599.5 | UHF | Horizontal |
| 39 | SBS39 | 606.5 | UHF | Horizontal |
