TV reception in Watermans Bay
Free-to-air TV in Watermans Bay comes from the Perth main transmitter at Bickley / Carmel, 35.1 km to the ESE (bearing 121°). It broadcasts on VHF Band III (channels 6–12) channels 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, horizontally polarised.
A medium-gain VHF antenna pointed ESE and mounted horizontally (elements flat) gives reliable reception for most homes.
Pockets of Watermans Bay shadowed from Perth can use the Perth Coastal translator (4.9 km S, 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.

| 8 | STW8 | 191.5 | VHF | Horizontal |
