Nope. It varies *a lot* from city to city. However, in NYC and LA (where the networks themselves own the stations WNBC, WABC, WCBS, and KNBC, KABC, and KCBS, respectively) the assignations are CBS - 2, NBC - 4, and ABC - 7. Also, the Fox channel in both cities is 5. But, as always, YMM (definitely) V.
