In most of the world, the FM broadcast band, used for broadcasting FM radio stations, goes from 87.5~108.0 MHz. In the Americas (ITU region 2) it starts at 87.8, at the top end of TV channel 6. In Japan the FM broadcast band is 76~90 MHz, unlike any other country in the world. The old OIRT band in Eastern Europe was 66~74MHz.

The name "FM band" is usually used but is slightly misleading, as one can transmit FM on any frequency. All of these bands mentioned are in the VHF band.
