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.
Standard time frequencies can be heard here. VHF low 54–88 MHz: vestigial sideband modulation for analog video, and FM for analog audio; 8-VSB or OFDM for digital broadcast very high frequency (VHF) band I: Channels 2 through 6 are from 54–88 MHz (except 72–76 MHz). FM radio: 87.5–108 MHz, 76–90 MHz in Japan Frequency Modulation (FM)
However, FM broadcasting did not become widespread, even in North America, until the 1960s. Frequency-modulated radio waves can be generated at any frequency. All the bands mentioned in this article are in the very high frequency (VHF) range, which extends from 30 to 300 MHz.

The frequencies available for FM were decided by some important conferences of ITU. The milestone of those conferences is the Stockholm agreement of 1961 among 38 countries. [47] A 1984 conference in Geneva made some modifications to the original Stockholm agreement particularly in the frequency range above 100 MHz.
Class B and D stations can be found on any frequencies from 540 kHz to 1700 kHz except where frequencies have been reserved for Class C stations. Class C stations can be found in the lower 48 US states on the frequencies of 1230 kHz, 1240 kHz, 1340 kHz, 1400 kHz, 1450 kHz, and 1490 kHz (commonly known as "graveyard" frequencies).
