TV reception in Fingal Bay
Free-to-air TV in Fingal Bay comes from the Port Stephens local translator at Nelson Bay, 3.6 km to the NW (bearing 305°). It broadcasts on UHF (channels 28–51) channels 28, 30, 31, 32, 33, vertically polarised.
A standard-gain UHF antenna pointed NW and mounted vertically (elements upright) gives reliable reception for most homes.
Pockets of Fingal Bay shadowed from Port Stephens can use the Anna Bay translator (7.1 km WSW, UHF channels 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, H polarisation), which needs a UHF antenna pointed the other way, a common cause of "wrong antenna" reception faults after DIY installs.
The regional main transmitter (Newcastle, 60.4 km WSW) is generally not usable here without a high-gain installation; the translator is the intended service.
