In this video I talk about the fate of radio stations that broadcast on 87.7FM also known as Franken FMs. They actually aren't technically radio stations but rather low powered TV stations. The analog audio carrier for VHF channel 6 is 87.75MHz which can be picked up by most radios on 87.7. The FCC is requiring all remaining analog TV stations to convert to digital by July 13th of this year, 2021. If this happens these "Franken FMs" will no longer be heard on a radio. Some of these radio stations include Me-TV FM in Chicago, Guadeloupe Radio in Los Angeles, La Nueva in DC, Country Gold in Inyokern, The Bridge, in Jacksonville and several others. Thanks to radiosurvivor.com for the screen graphic! NN COMMENTS: I love this kind of unusual stuff -- crewed briefly on Dr. Cobin's pirate station. Who knew the TV and radio bands overlapt? Half of you I'm sure.
Broadcast TV has to be doomed with legions of individuals, many prolly with no training, doing millions of TV-grade presentations that are so much more interesting than most idiot box content. Wonder how many are being uploaded each day!
