Digital sub-channels
A digital TV signal transmits more data than an analog signal. This
increase in data provides a better picture and sound with less static and
interference. The increased data capacity also lets broadcasters fit
several channels into the same bandwidth as an analog signal.
Broadcasters may use these sub-channels to transmit a variety of
information, such as weather forecasts, foreign languages, and
commercials. A digital sub-channel is indicated by the main channel
number, followed by a dot, then the sub-channel number. For example,
5.1 indicates sub-channel 1 of main channel 5.
