Why we do not give one number for cable. DIRECTV and DISH broadcast a single national channel map, so those numbers are the same everywhere and we publish them as fact. Spectrum, Xfinity, Cox and Optimum assign numbers system by system, so a national cable number would be wrong more often than right. Where a number varies we say so and point you at your own guide.
