The following is a list of unused FM allocations in the FCC's table of allotments. Getting a frequency allocated to a community is the first step to starting a new station in the commercial portion of the FM band (92-108 MHz). The FCC will eventually put these frequencies up for auction.
Transmitter locations are not specified if no site restriction was included in the FCC's order, but potential new stations will still have to meet minimum distance separations. Please send any corrections to JonEllis@NorthPine.com.
