channel number
TV dial setting
A channel number identifies a specific television or radio broadcast frequency.
Before streaming, viewers changed channels by number to watch different programs: Turn to channel 7 for the news.
Cable and satellite systems assign numbers to hundreds of channels, though the relationship between number and frequency has become arbitrary.
