Band III is the name of a radio frequency range within the very high frequency part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Radio frequency ( RF) is a Frequency or rate of Oscillation within the range of about 3 Hz to 300 GHz Very high frequency (VHF is the Radio frequency range from 30 MHz to 300 MHz. The electromagnetic (EM spectrum is the range of all possible Electromagnetic radiation frequencies
Band III ranges from 174 to 230 MHz, and it is primarily used for radio and television broadcasting. The hertz (symbol Hz) is a measure of Frequency, informally defined as the number of events occurring per Second. Radio is the transmission of signals by Modulation of electromagnetic waves with frequencies below those of visible Light. Television ( TV) is a widely used Telecommunication medium for sending ( Broadcasting) and receiving moving Images, either monochromatic

Worldwide Usage
In the UK and part of Ireland, Band III was originally used for monochrome 405-line television. Monochrome comes from the Greek μονόχρωμος ( monochromos) meaning “of one color” which is a combination The 405-line Monochrome analogue Television broadcasting system was the first fully electronic television system to be used in regular broadcasting Television ( TV) is a widely used Telecommunication medium for sending ( Broadcasting) and receiving moving Images, either monochromatic However this was discontinued by the mid 1980s. Some European countries (including Ireland) still use Band III for higher definition colour television, although this is now being gradually phased out. The use of the band for Digital Audio Broadcasting is now being widely adopted. Digital Audio Broadcasting ( DAB) also known as Eureka 147, is a Digital radio technology for Broadcasting Radio stations used in
In North America, use of the band for colour television broadcasts is still widespread. Favourable propagation characteristics and reasonable power limits (up to 65kW for full-power digital television, versus 20kW or less on VHF Band I) have caused many US broadcasters to elect to move full-power ATSC stations to Band III VHF once NTSC US analog television is shut down in 2009. The watt (symbol W) is the SI derived unit of power, equal to one Joule of energy per Second. This is a list of broadcast station classes applicable in much of North America under international agreements between the United States, Canada and Digital television (DTV is the sending and receiving of moving images and sound by discrete ( digital) signals in contrast to the analog signals used by Very high frequency (VHF is the Radio frequency range from 30 MHz to 300 MHz.
