In the Americas (defined as International Telecommunication Union (ITU) region 2), the FM broadcast band consists of 101 channels, each 200 kHz wide, in the frequency range from 87.8 to 108.0 MHz, with "center frequencies" running from 87.9 MHz to 107.9 MHz. For most purposes an FM station is associated with its center frequency.
Frequencies are reserved for Public Safety and for Industrial users. The 900 MHz band (935-940 MHz) is available solely for Industrial users. Finally, Public Safety entities are allotted an exclusive band of frequencies at 758-806 MHz. Low band has longer range capability, but requires mobile antennas as long as nine feet (2.7 m) tall.
The 800 MHz frequency band is a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, or frequency band, that encompasses 790–862 MHz.. Being a part of the spectrum known as "UHF Bands IV and V" (i.e. 470 MHz to 862 MHz) it was allocated by the ITU to Broadcasting as the primary user in Region 1 and was used for analogue television broadcasting before changing to digital terrestrial television in many ...
