Come to think of it, I've heard that, too, but maybe the word is 
"predominantly" UHF. Here in LA I don't think there are any VHF DT stations, and including 
multicast I'm getting 42 channels here at the studio. The lowest frequency I 
have listed is Telefutura (46-1) at 563 MHz, decidedly shorter than 1 meter. 
Aren't all the VHF NTSC channels being auctioned off to Google and Verizon as 
we speak?

Maybe someone can say whether there are any sub-300 MHz DTV stations in NYC? 
Is VHF DTV actually used anywhere, or can it theoretically be used, but isn't?
