Many channels have separate East Coast and West Coast feeds to compensate for time zone differences. If there are two copies of a channel and one of them is marked (East) or (West), that means the other one is the opposite. Which feed is marked depends on the time zone of the listing; listings from the Pacific and Mountain time zones will have East feeds marked, and listings from the Eastern and Central time zones will have West feeds marked. National listings (mainly satellite services) will have both marked.
