I ask because where I grew up, it’s a pretty simple
Channel 2 - 13 setup where
2 cbs
4 nbc
5 wb
7 abc
9 local (which used to have a lot of good syndicated programming)
11 fox
13 upn
I am surprised when I hear people from othe cities talk about channels and when I used to download tv shows it’s be like
Fox 40
Wb 56
Feels weird to have channel numbers that high.
The only time I’ve seen numbers beyond 13 is pbs, the Asian channels, the religious channel, home shopping. I only just recently found MeTv and when XPW was around, it was like channel 36 or something.

Wow, most of your channels are on the VHF band. That's kind of interesting.

Almost thought the OP was a New Yorker too, then I saw the local channel discrepancies.
Sounds like channels we've pretty much had all along. So...
2 CBS
4 NBC
5 Fox (fmy. Metromedia)
7 ABC
8 NJTV (PBS, fka NJN)
9 My Network (fmy. UPN, previously an RKO then Universal station)
11 CW (though outside of the CW lineups, they identify by their call letters of WPIX. Formerly a WB station as well)
13 PBS
21 PBS (Garden City, NY)
31 Ion (fmy. PBS, independent)
41 Univision (fmy. SIN)
47 Telemundo (fmy. NetSpan, independent)
When I lived in southern Jersey, we picked up Philly stations too, primarily 3 (NBC, now CBS); 6 (ABC); 10 (CBS, now NBC); and 12 (PBS).
