Notes:
- KPXJ was the first station in the U.S. to convert its broadcast signal to digital-only in September 2005..
- In 2004, KPXJ became a UPN affiliate. It was originally an affiliate of PAX (now known as Ion). Shreveport is now one of a few markets which the Ion network does not have an affiliate station. Ion's national feed can be seen on Cox Communications in Bossier City and on Comcast in Shreveport.
- Previously, UPN was broadcast on KSHV, sharing an affiliation with The WB network. UPN programming aired from 9 to 11 p.m. Syndicated programming currently airs at that time on channel 45.
- KTBS broadcasts newscasts for KPXJ on Monday through Friday mornings at 7 a.m. and nightly at 9 p.m. Before becoming a UPN affiliate in 2004, KPXJ aired rebroadcasts of KTBS 3 News daily at 5:30 p.m. (rebroadcast of the 5 p.m. newscast) and 11 p.m. (rebroadcast of the 10 p.m. newscast).
