That's amazing, I recall living in Ellensburg years ago and swore I saw a snowy KNDU. Reflection off the northern hills of the Kittitas Valley?
Do you receive KEPR as well?
What's your elevation?
I ran an ANT751R only pointed at 80 degrees magnetic that brought me most Spokane locals not terrain shielded (@ 16 miles, LOS) and an Idaho PBS translator (@ 55 miles, LOS) for a year. Then last summer I added the 91xg to specifically go after KLEW's 1kw Moscow/Pullman translator (@ 56 miles, 1-edge) which is reported at about 7db field strength. KLEW is almost fully reliable except in icing conditions at the transmission site.
DX'ing must be fun with your reception! I am lucky I can even run a preamp to work with the 91xg. I'm so close to the Spokane locals they are putting 65 db signals on me.

I have found this true also with the Wenatchee area Stephanie regarding reception and the radar plot i was given . I am a NOOB to this also Matter.
I am Using a Dennys HD stacker with what I consider to be great success. I have aimed this antenna pretty much every direction and reception is great in all directions and best at 180Degrees.
Good to see another Central Washingtonian here.
