Not at all! First of all, if you usually watched on cable, you'd want to know where to find the channel on a portable set. If you were from out of town, (like myself) you would have no idea that "CW 6" is actually channel 61... I'm watching on an older RCA set with a varactor tuner that requires you to set all the UHF channels.
What about those of us who like to DX?
I hate that cable TV has become the "standard". Free OTA broadcasting is doomed, and we still have the commercials!!!
