It's been a few years since I delivered anything to PBS nationally, but in my experience, they are real sticklers for the letter of the law. That means correct formats, correct slate info, correct labels, exact times and properly filled out QC paperwork.
If you go in through a PBS feeder station that has a trusted track record with the network and who makes sure of the above, then the network folks seem to scrutinize the program a bit less. In other words, if they spot check the master and the levels and other measurements coincide with the information supplied by the affiliate, then they tend to trust that the affiliate did their job.
One key to this is for the affiliate to actually create and use QC forms that mimic the network's and then to actually go by those values. Of course, if your master fails, then it throws up red flags for the next time.
