Such a system is not used because of the differences in ownership between metro, regional and remote stations. The current system was adopted to prevent overlap for the commercial networks and their affiliates.

In time, they may adopt national numbers if the metro networks purchase any of their affiliates, but we’re stuck with what we’ve got for now.
