It was originally intended to be a full repeater of KIMA-TV, but due to popular demand it became more of a local station.ДЄt one point, KIMA also had a satellite station in Ephrata, Washington. With this in mind, in 1954 Cascade signed on KEPR-TV as the first satellite station in the United States. It soon became apparent that channel 29 was not nearly strong enough to cover this vast and mountainous area by itself. Just before KIMA signed on, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) collapsed all of central WashingtonвЂ“including the Tri-CitiesвЂ“into one giant television market. When KNDO switched affiliations to NBC in 1965, the two stations shared ABC until 1970, when KAPP signed on and took over ABC, leaving KIMA to become a full-time CBS affiliate. It lost DuMont when that network shut down in 1955, then lost ABC when KNDO signed on in 1959 as a primary ABC affiliate. It carried programming from all four networksвЂ“CBS, NBC, ABC and DuMontвЂ“but has always been a primary CBS affiliate. The station was originally owned by Cascade Broadcasting Company along with KIMA radio (AM 1460, now KUTI). KIMA signed on Jas the 200th television station in the United States and the first in central Washington. On satellite, Dish Network and DirecTV carry both KIMA-TV and KEPR-TV. Master control and some internal operations for the four stations are based at KOMO Plaza (formerly Fisher Plaza) in Seattle. They simulcast all network and syndicated programming as provided through KIMA, but air separate commercial inserts, legal identifications and early evening newscasts, and have their own websites. KIMA operates two semi-satellitesвЂ“ KEPR-TV (channel 19) in Pasco (serving the Tri-Cities) and KLEW-TV (channel 3) in Lewiston, Idaho. Both stations share studios on Terrace Heights Boulevard (east of I-82) in Yakima, while KIMA-TV's transmitter is located on Ahtanum Ridge. It is owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group alongside low-power, Class A Univision affiliate KUNW-CD (channel 2). KIMA-TV (channel 29) is a television station in Yakima, Washington, United States, affiliated with CBS and The CW Plus.
