§ 73.201 - Numerical designation of FM broadcast channels.

The FM broadcast band consists of that portion of the radio frequency spectrum between 88 MHz and 108 MHz. It is divided into 100 channels of 200 kHz each. For convenience, the frequencies available for FM broadcasting (including those assigned to noncommercial educational broadcasting) are given numerical designations which are shown in the table below:

Frequency (Mc/s)	Channel No.	88.1	201	88.3	202	88.5	203	88.7	204	88.9	205	89.1	206	89.3	207	89.5	208	89.7	209	89.9	210	90.1	211	90.3	212	90.5	213	90.7	214	90.9	215	91.1	216	91.3	217	91.5	218	91.7	219	91.9	220	92.1	221	92.3	222	92.5	223	92.7	224	92.9	225	93.1	226	93.3	227	93.5	228	93.7	229	93.9	230	94.1	231	94.3	232	94.5	233	94.7	234	94.9	235	95.1	236	95.3	237	95.5	238	95.7	239	95.9	240	96.1	241	96.3	242	96.5	243	96.7	244	96.9	245	97.1	246	97.3	247	97.5	248	97.7	249	97.9	250	98.1	251	98.3	252	98.5	253	98.7	254	98.9	255	99.1	256	99.3	257	99.5	258	99.7	259	99.9	260	100.1	261	100.3	262	100.5	263	100.7	264	100.9	265	101.1	266	101.3	267	101.5	268	101.7	269	101.9	270	102.1	271	102.3	272	102.5	273	102.7	274	102.9	275	103.1	276	103.3	277	103.5	278	103.7	279	103.9	280	104.1	281	104.3	282	104.5	283	104.7	284	104.9	285	105.1	286	105.3	287	105.5	288	105.7	289	105.9	290	106.1	291	106.3	292	106.5	293	106.7	294	106.9	295	107.1	296	107.3	297	107.5	298	107.7	299	107.9	300
