KBTR-CA, known locally as WBTR 41, is a television station in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. KBTR-CA broadcasts family entertainment programming and was operated by Louis E. "Woody" Jenkins until 2004.
While the station is licensed as KBTR-CA, it brands itself on the air as WBTR 41 to help fit in with other stations in the market. To keep other stations from using the WBTR calls (other than in legal IDs), KBTR has registered "WBTR" as a Registered trademark.
UATV suspended operations in May 2006. The Sportsman Channel is airing on another LPTV that was a UATV station, KLFT-LP in Lafayette. Thus, it is possible that TSC may be airing on KBTR-CA at this time.
