Many thanks to Roberts County Telephone/ Cable and to cable systems across the state of South Dakota who are offering all three SDPB Television channels. Roberts County Telephone Cable is the latest South Dakota television signal provider to come onboard. The system recently updated equipment and now carries SDPB1, the main channel, and SDPB2, which carries a variety of news, talk, documentary and science programs.
The Roberts County system expects to add SDPB3 soon, with lifestyle, such as travel, cooking, sewing, hobbies and more; SDPB Kids; and some local programming.
