Both the CRTC and the FCC have web pages which list all TV (and radio) 
station positions by latitude and longitude. If you cannot get your 
exact home position lat and long with a GPS, you can use google earth to 
place a bookmark on your house and get the exact lat long from the 
properties of the bookmark.

Then google 'great circle javascript' and you will find a number of web 
pages which will calculate the course and distance between any to positions.
