List of NBC television affiliates (table)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The NBC Television Network is an American television network made up of ten owned-and-operated stations and nearly 200 affiliates. This is a table listing of NBC's affiliates, with NBC-owned stations separated from privately owned affiliates, and arranged by market ranking based on data compiled by Nielsen Media Research. There are links to and articles on each of the stations, describing their local programming, hosts and technical information, such as broadcast frequencies

The station's advertised channel number follows the call letters. In most cases, this is their over-the-air (analog) broadcast frequency.

Notes:
1) ** Indicates a station built and signed-on by NBC;
2) Does not include stations owned-and-operated by Telemundo, the Spanish-language network owned by NBC Universal.
