I don't think there is a list that gives real channel, virtual channel and frequency of real channel. If you know the real channel number, then you can look up the frequency of that channel in the link that I gave in post #28.

by zip code

click on callsign to see subchannels



The display channel is the same as the virtual channel; the physical channel is the same as the real channel.

You can do it here:

If you enter just the zip code, the distance and direction will be off. If you add your street address, it will be more accurate. If you also check Strength Search (optional), it will generate a report similar to a tvfool report. I will not give a link to that result because it will show your street address.



Why do you need to know the actual frequency of the channel?

The only time I need it is to design an antenna for a certain channel, to calculate the specs for an interference filter, or to know if the second harmonic of an FM transmitter falls on a VHF-High channel.
