An additional service, LPB+, is currently only available on Cox Cable in Baton Rouge and Lafayette. In the New Orleans market, WLAE-TV is 50% owned by LPB and carries some LPB programming. Since WYES-TV was the first PBS affiliate in New Orleans, it has rights to most PBS programming in prime time.
