During daytime broadcast hours, the station's antenna system uses two towers arranged in a directional array that concentrates the signal toward the northeast. At nighttime, only one of the towers is used, resulting in an omnidirectional pattern. According to the Antenna Structure Registration database, each of the towers is 75 m (246 ft) tall.^[3] The transmitter and antenna array are located on the west side of Moses Lake near North Westshore Drive.
