North American Broadcast Television Frequencies - UHF Band

UHF Band

In the United States, channels 52 to 69 have been reallocated to Part 90 Land Mobile Radio Service. Channels 70 to 83 were previously reallocated to Land Mobile Radio Service and Cellular Mobile Radio Service in 1982. Channel 37 is reserved for radio astronomy in the United States, Canada, Bermuda and the Bahamas, thus there are no television stations assigned to it in these countries.

On August 22, 2011, the United States' Federal Communications Commission announced a freeze on all future applications for broadcast stations requesting to use channel 51, to preventadjacent-channel interference to the A-Block of the 700 MHz band. Later that year (on December 16, 2011), Industry Canada and the CRTC followed suit in placing a moratorium on future television stations using Channel 51 for broadcast use, to prevent adjacent-channel interference to the A-Block of the 700 MHz band.

Famous quotes containing the word band:

    “Citizen’s Band radio renders one accessible to a wide variety of people from all walks of life. It should not be forgotten that all walks of life include conceptual artists, dry cleaners, and living poets.”
    —Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
