Woah! Haha. Interesting indeed. It doesn't need WGFL, WMYG or WNBW. The quality of the stations and its news stink IMO. They should've put WCJB 20.2 though, unless if they wanted to add another CW, go with WKCF 18 instead. They should've also either carried WUCF 24 or WJCT 7 for an alternate PBS station.

Thief River Falls nothing changed ion regards to 2-13
 
The cable lineup still says WTBS? To this day? As much as I miss the old Superstation, today's TBS is nothing like what it used to be. Who would've thought, in a million years, that Snoop Dogg would be hosting a Joker's Wild revival on Sunday nights? Think Jack Barry's still spinning in his grave over that...

Oh. Just saw that now. But that's so far down under the lineup. That should've been on Channel 4, not ESPN.

Charter, Pasadena, CA (Los Angeles). They've never had PBS in the 2-13 range,

Late 90's-early 2000's:
2: CBS
3: Never paid much attention to this channel.
4: NBC
5: KTLA
6: ESPN (traded with Nickelodeon c. 1998, which was channel 16).
7: ABC
8: USA
9: KCAL
10: CNN
11: Fox
12: MTV
13: KCOP

In 2005, we switched to another provider (don't remember its name) for a couple years. I think that Pax/i/iOn, (either QVC or HSN), and KCET were in the 2-13 range.

Charter Spectrum (Currently):
2: CBS
3: Public Access
4: NBC
5: KTLA
6: Univision
7: ABC
8: Blank
9: KCAL

For Spectrum Port O'Connor, Tex... they allow KAVU and KVCT instead of KRIV?

For Spectrum Seadrift, Tex... no Houston locals? I mean, it has KAVU/KVCT from Victoria and KIII, KRIS, KEDT and KZTV from Corpus Christi?
