[QUOTE="RonD, post: 1098165, member: 117536"] I'm in the USA and use OTA/ATSC TV, as far as I know the Channel IDs KPRC-HD etc are the only ID info available. This is the "legal" channel/station license ID from the FCC/government. In general there is no relationship between Channel ID and the network other than NYC (WCBS, WNBC, WABC) and LA (KCBS, KNBC, KABC). Some of the ATSC sub-channels have the Network ID, (COZI, METV, etc) but all of the main/primary channels just have the official Channel ID. I agree it would have been nice to have a "Network ID" available in the digital bits to identify the network carried by that channel but that was not defined in the rules. The following webpage has a list of all the channels in each USA TV market and shows the networks for each channel, click on the city, then click on a channel to see details for sub-channels.
