Television channel frequencies

The following tables show the frequencies assigned to broadcast television channels in various regions of the world, along with the ITU letter designator for the system used. The frequencies shown are for the analogue video and audio carriers. The channel itself occupies several megahertz of bandwidth. For example, North American channel 1 occupies the spectrum from 44 to 50 MHz. See Broadcast television systems for a table of signal characteristics, including bandwidth, by ITU letter designator.

VHF

 
A plan showing frequency ranges for each television channel used on VHF

Americas (most countries), South Korea, Taiwan, Burma (Myanmar) and the Philippines

During World War II, the frequencies originally assigned as channels 13 to 18 were appropriated by the U.S. military, which still uses them to this day. It was also decided to move the allocation for FM radio from the 42-50 MHz band to a larger 88-106 MHz band (later extended to the current 88-108 MHz FM band). This required a reassignment of the VHF channels to the plan currently in use.[1]

  • FM channel 200, 87.9 MHz, overlaps TV 6. This is used only by K200AA. Channel 6A is only used in South Korea and the Philippines.
  • TV 6 analog audio can be heard on FM 87.75 on most broadcast radio receivers as well as on a European TV tuned to channel 4A or channel C, but at lower volume than wideband FM broadcast stations, because of the lower deviation.
  • Channel 1 audio is the same as European Channel 2 audio and the video is the same as European Channel 2A. Channel 2 video is the same as European Channel 3 video.

  • Channel A was never used terrestrially. The only System I Band I transmitter on Channel B was RTÉ One from the Maghera, Co. Clare transmitter during 1963–1999. Channel A was initially intended for use at Maghera but Channel B was used instead because of the risk of interference to (overspill) reception of BBC 405 line transmissions.[2] It was moved to Channel E due to interference from distant transmitters on channel 3 and channel A via certain atmospheric conditions and other reasons. Channel C was used by a relay transmitter in Glanmire, Co. Cork.
  • Channel B video is the same as Italian Channel A video and Channel C audio is the same as Channel 4 audio).
  • There are currently no Band I Channels used in Ireland (except on cable TV, and these have mostly been phased out for DOCSIS use) and no plans to resume using them.
  • Most Irish Cable TV systems do not follow the above channel plan as their analogue (video) carriers are usually at multiples of 8 MHz (i.e. 176, 184, 192 MHz etc. in Band III)

  • Channels 1 and 1A were used for early experimental broadcasts and are no longer allocated.[3]
  • Channels 15 and 16 are allocated for use in the African Broadcasting Area only.[4]
  • Channel 2A was only ever used in Austria for the Sendeturm Jauerling to avoid interferences with neighboring Eastern European TV stations.
  • Channel 12 was reserved by the military in some countries (like Germany (West Germany only)) so only relay transmitters operated on this frequency.
  • Channel 4A audio carrier's frequency is very close to US Channel 6 audio carrier and overlaps the FM band in Europe

  • Channels 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 5A are no longer used since the transition to digital television.
  • With the introduction of digital TV in 2001, the last two channels were moved up by 1 MHz (some existing services affected - one example is AMV11 in the Upper Murray region of Victoria, Australia and VTV-11 in Western Victoria, due to the introduction of digital television at the time in regional Victoria) to allow a full 7 MHz for a new channel 9A and channel 12 was added following the new channel 11.

UHF

Americas (most countries), South Korea, Taiwan, Burma (Myanmar) and the Philippines

For frequencies used in the Americas (most countries), South Korea, Taiwan and the Philippines, refer to Pan-American television frequencies.

Notes
  • The frequencies used by UHF channels 70 through 83 were reallocated to the Land Mobile Radio System (Public Safety and Trunked Radio) and mobile phones in a CCIR worldwide convention in 1982, and thus were never used for digital TV but are highlighted in cyan and listed here for theoretical use.
  • In certain metropolitan areas of the United States, Channels 14 through 20 have been allocated to Land Mobile Radio (LMR) use.[8]
  • Channels 52 through 69 in the United States have been reallocated now that conversion to digital TV was completed on June 12, 2009. These channels are highlighted in yellow. Channels 70 through 83 in the United States and Canada were re-allocated to AMPS cellular phone use in 1983.
  • 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,[9] to prevent adjacent-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.[10]
  • Not all countries listed use ATSC, which has a single VSB carrier wave. Other countries use COFDM modulation for DVB-T (Taiwan, Colombia) or ISDB-Tb (Philippines and Latin America), which has dozens of carriers within the channel. Burma (Myanmar) uses DVB-T2 on 8 MHz channel spacing on Western Europe / Asia DTV frequency along with Southeast Asian countries (except Philippines).
  • ISDB-Tb frequency DTV channel 14 uses 473.142857 MHz, but ATSC 3.0, DVB-T/DVB-T2, and DTMB, use 473.0 MHz.
  • Channel 37 is reserved for radio astronomy in the United States, Canada, Bermuda, Belize, and the Bahamas, thus there are no television stations assigned to it. Mexico also informally observes a ban on transmitters using this channel.
  • Due to the FCC repack in the United States, all TV stations that had been broadcasting from channels 38 to 51 were required to move on or below channel 36 by July 3, 2020. As a result, channels 38-51 are highlighted in magenta.[11] These frequencies would later be used by U.S. mobile carriers like T-Mobile on Band 71.[12]

Myanmar and the Philippines Edit For frequencies used in the Americas most countries South Korea Taiwan and the Philippines refer to Pan American television frequencies NotesThe frequencies used by UHF channels 70 through 83 were reallocated to the Land Mobile Radio System Public Safety and Trunked Radio and mobile phones in a CCIR worldwide convention in 1982 and thus were never used for digital TV but are highlighted in cyan and listed here for theoretical use In certain metropolitan areas of the United States Channels 14 through 20 have been allocated to Land Mobile Radio LMR use 8 Channels 52 through 69 in the United States have been reallocated now that conversion to digital TV was completed on June 12 2009 These channels are highlighted in yellow Channels 70 through 83 in the United States and Canada were re allocated to AMPS cellular phone use in 1983 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 9 to prevent adjacent 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 10 Not all countries listed use ATSC which has a single VSB carrier wave Other countries use COFDM modulation for DVB T Taiwan Colombia or ISDB Tb Philippines and Latin America which has dozens of carriers within the channel Burma Myanmar uses DVB T2 on 8 MHz channel spacing on Western Europe Asia DTV frequency along with Southeast Asian countries except Philippines ISDB Tb frequency DTV channel 14 uses 473 142857 MHz but ATSC 3 0 DVB T DVB T2 and DTMB use 473 0 MHz Channel 37 is reserved for radio astronomy in the United States Canada Bermuda Belize and the Bahamas thus there are no television stations assigned to it Mexico also informally observes a ban on transmitters using this channel Due to the FCC repack in the United States all TV stations that had been broadcasting from channels 38 to 51 were required to move on or below channel 36 by July 3 2020 As a result channels 38 51 are highlighted in magenta 11 These frequencies would later be used by U S mobile carriers like T Mobile on Band 71 12 System M
