My old Color Computer used US VHF channels 3 or 4 for

found a reference to the ZX Spectrum using UK UHF channel 35 for PAL
video.
What other channels were used all over the world by 8-bit home computers
(and video games, too, I suppose), and which TV standards were used with
them?
About 90% of the stuff sold in USA used VHF 3, or VHF 3&4 switchable.
The Sup'R'Mod II used UHF 34. It was significant in its popularity with
early Apple ][, and apparently (based solely on the keyed 4-pin
Berg connector) was what was considered in the design of CGA.
