NBC DirecTV Channel Number

NBC is on Channel 392 on DirecTV.  There’s usually a lowered numbered channel as well.

Unfortunately, the first lowered numbered channel where you can watch NBC is on different channel numbers on Directv depending on where you live.

For instance, NBC is on Channel 4 in Los Angeles but on Channel 11 in San Francisco.

Fortunately, there’s always Channel 392 as an option for Directv customers if you don’t want to find the lowered numbered channel.

The lowered number channel is usually one of the first channels on your TV guide.

If it’s helpful, we researched the channel numbers for NBC in the top cities that DIRECTV operates in and made this table for you.

What Channel Is NBC On Dish

Dish hasn’t made it as easy to find NBC’s channel number as DirecTV has for their customers.

Right now, Dish is like cable providers like Optimum and Comcast where broadcast channels are on different locations depending on where you live.

There’s even some places where you have 3 channels where you can watch NBC on Dish.

Geography doesn’t help you much because if you look at cities that are close like Dallas and El Paso, there’s different channel numbers – 5 and 9 respectively.

Thankfully, the NBC Channel is usually on a lowered number channel on Dish.

We can help you find the channel if you take a look at our table below of cities and channels where you can watch NBC on Dish Network.

Where Can You Watch NBC On Xfinity

Xfinity has placed the NBC Channel in different locations depending on your zip code.

We’ve noticed that there’s always more than one channel where you can watch NBC on Comcast.

It’s usually a lowered-numbered channel and a higher-numbered channel.  The reason for the higher numbered channel is for an HD feed.

That’s not super relevant if you’ve upgraded your cable box over the last 5 years.

It’s annoying that there are some places where there’s 4 NBC channels spread across channels 2 to 1005.

At least as a broadcast channel, NBC is usually one of the first channels you’ll see when you start your remote.

Not all channels have that luxury.

To get help finding the right channel for NBC on Comcast, just look at our list below.
