I can't find my sheet that says all the channels, and I don't feel like flipping through a bunch only to accidentally skip over it.

Only if you pay for the local channels package

You have to pay for the local channels. I had them before and they even gave me a PBS HDTV channel I never knew about. They're also usually before the 100 channels on DISH Network. I think I remember them being ##-000 (for me the channel was 18).

DISH has local channels of the client they are serving. ALMOST EVERY CORNER IN AMERICA IS SERVED BY A PBS STATION.

THUS, DISH SHOULD HAVE PBS ON THE CHANNEL LISTING.... BUT ONLY ON YOUR SATELLITE TV GUIDE.... NOT TV GUIDE.

I have DISH, MY channel is 008 or 8

guess you don;t get local channels... sorry man... you could always unhook your satellite and hook up a old regular TV antenna.... I'm SURE you can PBS that way... only problem is, do you still have one of those old TV Antennas?
