The network began airing in May and has yet to make it into the black. LETN depends solely on monthly subscriber fees that range from $288 to $588.

LETN is betting on a long, successful run and, like any other network, hawking its new fall shows. Trumpets an LETN program guide: "Coming in cooperation with the Drug Enforcement Administration, Drug Crackdown, a new weekly program with DEA instructors, field-action footage, investigative insights, survival tips and management strategies." The show premieres this week. Stay tuned.
