"Hotel" Editions

These 4 editions are known to collectors as "hotel editions", as they are commonly found near the TV at hotels and lodging establishments. However, these "hotel" editions are also found at places where people normally wait, like at the doctor's office, at the dentist's, or at the corner barber shop. These TVGs are mainly designed to fill in the gaps local TVGs leave when it comes to cable channels and some local affiliated stations (for example, many WB & UPN stations are low-powered and not listed in TVG).

Notes:

1. Many fatures normally found in the listings section, like soap operas, 4-star movies, "The Robins Report", VCRplus^TM, etc., are omitted.

2. This list is according to the Eastern Time Zone edition. Not all channels listed in all editions.

Notes:

1. TNT is listed in the ETZ edition only.

2. The "hotel" editions are the only ones that list (WGN) as WGN only, rather than explaining that it's affiliated with the WB and it comes from Chicago, like regular editions.

3. The "hotels" used to explain that (ABC) is ABC, (NBC) is NBC, etc., but they have since listed only the bullets in this area of "channels listed", as they are self-explanetory, and telling the reader what they stand for is redundant.
