KNDO/KNDU Tri-Cities, Yakima, WA | HDTV Programming
Member Center:
High Definition TV has come the Yakima/Tri-Cities area!
KNDO and KNDU are the first commercial stations in the area to broadcast in HD. We've been broadcasting in digital for some time, providing NBC and local news in digital quality.
HD ON-AIR AS OF JANUARY 19, 2006
But, now your favorite shows will be in HIGH DEFINITION! You can see many of NBC's network programs in HD as well as premier events such as the Olympics.
Locally, you'll be able to see HD over-the-air by tuning your digital tuner to 25.1 in the Tri-Cities area or 23.1 in the Yakima area.
If you're a Charter Cable digital customer, you can simply tune to Charter channel 782.
* Special Note for Kittitas County viewers or viewers of KNDO/KNDU on translators
If you are a Dish Network or Direct TV satellite subscriber, HD is not available on your satellite. At this time, neither satellite company has the capacity to handle local stations' HD signals. They tell us they are launching additional satellites to handle this capacity, but we expect it to be quite some time before HD is available locally. Dish / Direct TV customers may be able to tune to over-the-air (23.1 / 25.1) depending on the sat receiver model and where you are located.

Note for Kittitas County Viewers:
Digital translators were put on the art on September 1st 2008. KNDO-DT is rebroadcast on a digital translator as well as the existing analog channel 31 translator. To receive that digital translator - have the converter box or digital TV set scan for available channels - the rebroadcast digital channels will be listed as 23.1, 23.2 and 23.3 when your converter on digital set has found them.
