someone asked me to provide docs on the VHF portion of the TV band. this is it. VHF covers channels 2-13...no longer channels per se as the channel number is no longer attached to the assigned frequency. the UHF portion of the band covers the frequencies that used to be assigned to channels 14-83. while most TV broadcasters that had assignments in the VHF band have indeed been moved to UHF frequencies there still are a few remaining in the VHF portion of the band.
