I'd have to read up again to be real exact.
Yeah, I'm not sure either all I know is that the reason why FM was created in the first place was because the FCC got rid of Channel 1 with Analog TV shortly before we entered WWII so then because of that then the 42-50 Mhz FM Broadcast Spectrum came into being, but then the FCC thought that the military could make better use of the 42-50 Mhz spectrum better which was when they decided to open the modern 88-108 Mhz FM band just shortly after WWII (but I wasn't aware of it being originally 88-109 and from when to when that was I don't know.)
