New to antenna TV? Why do channels have a dot?
A quick example

Why do channels have a dot?

Your TV may show 8.1, 8.2, or 8.3. These are separate program services. The first number is the major virtual channel; the number after the dot identifies a particular service.

Example channel listWRIC-TV
8.1ABCMain network channelMain
8.2Antenna TVClassic television
8.3COZI TVClassic television
8.4LaffComedy
The number before the dot

The “8” groups services under a familiar virtual channel number.

The number after the dot

The “.1”, “.2”, etc. identifies a specific service, not a decimal measurement.

Why services may look unrelated

A virtual channel can be carried by a station whose own primary channel number is different. That is why the channel directory is sorted by the number shown on your TV.

Antenna TV basics: virtual channel vs. RF channel

The virtual channel is the familiar number shown by your TV, such as 6.1. RF channel is a technical frequency assignment that carries a signal. The RF number and broadcast power are useful for engineering and troubleshooting, but most viewers do not need them to browse local channels.

Transmitter power is not the same as the signal strength that reaches a home. Location, antenna type and placement, terrain, buildings, interference, and tuner capability all matter.

What is NextGen TV (ATSC 3.0)?

NextGen TV is a newer over-the-air broadcast standard that can support enhanced video, audio, accessibility, and interactive features. Actual service and compatibility vary by market and equipment. You can use the channel directory without understanding ATSC 3.0; related details remain optional.

About channel information and data sources

Station names, virtual channel assignments, transmitter coordinates and engineering values are compiled from publicly available broadcast licensing and engineering records and broadcaster-published information. Labels and channel lineups can change.
