Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Telecom(munications) / digital television
Spanish term or phrase: dial
As in say "Número o dial del canal", referring to the selection of a channel on a digital television receiver. How do you translate "dial" in that context? How is it different from the channel number? Or is it just another term for it?
