====VHF television==== The U.S. [[Federal Communications Commission|FCC]] allocated television broadcasting to a channelized roster as early as 1938 with 19 channels. That changed three more times: in 1940 when Channel 19 was deleted and several channels changed frequencies, then in 1946 with television going from 18 channels to 13 channels, again with different frequencies, and finally in 1948 with the removal of [[Channel 1 (North American TV)|Channel 1]] (analog channels 2β13 remain as they were, even on [[cable television]]).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.tech-notes.tv/History&Trivia/Channel%20One/Channel_1.htm |series=Tech Notes |title=What Ever Happened to Channel 1? |at=Table 1 <!-- Retrieved March 27, 2014 --> |website=tech-notes.tv |access-date=27 April 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170317040906/http://www.tech-notes.tv/History%26Trivia/Channel%20One/Channel_1.htm |archive-date=17 March 2017 |df=dmy-all}}</ref> Channels 14β19 later appeared on the UHF band, while channel 1 remains unused.
