@cordycep Don't worry about looking up the stock symbols to enter your 1099-B. You can use the CUSIP number, or something as simple as '10 shs AT&T stock' for your stock description.
The IRS gets a copy of your 1099-B, so they will see that your entry matches the document you received.
They are mostly concerned with whether you had a Gain or a Loss, and was it Short-Term or Long-Term.
