in Baton Rouge for the first time since 2002. On February 28, 2023, WVLA will add Antenna TV to a channel 33.4, approximately one month after original affiliate WLFT-CD discontinued broadcasting it upon being purchased by Family Worship Center. Analog-to-digital conversion WVLA-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 33, on June 12, 2009, the official date in which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 34. Through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display the station's virtual channel as its former UHF analog channel 33. Due to its signal strength, the station can be seen in a good portion of the towns in the Lafayette (Acadiana region) and New Orleans markets.
