how do I learn what programs are on the additional sub-channels?

I have just installed a 40 in Samsung HDTV LCD tv. I immediately
learned that many of the channels have additional programs on the same
channel number. For want of a better term, I'll call then sub-
channels. Please correct me if there is a better term.

All of the newspaper tv program guides tell what programs are on the
initial main channel. But is there a way of learning ahead of time
what programs are on the sub-channels?

Subchannel is the correct term. Good guess!
Check the stations' website. You may fine
the information you want there.

When I went to the Web site of one of my local stations (KARE) to see
their schedule, I was bounced to

http://kare.titantv.com/apg/ttv.aspx?siteid=50061

Wandering around the "titantv.com" Web site, I ended up at

http://www.titantv.com/quickguide/quickguide.aspx

where you can enter your ZIP code and select OTA digital or analog,
cable and various satellite source.

For OTA digital, it appears to show schedule info for all the
subchannels.

One thing I found out (with a two different HDTVs) is there's also sub-
carriers within sub-channels. One display will list each sub-channels
program material -- a screen comes up that displays a short synopsis
of what's currently playing, as well an expanded version of what will
be playing at some future point during the day. The other display
won't do it.

Most digital channels have on screen schedules for the next 24
hours.
