| 5 | LF | 30 to 300 kHz | Kilometric waves | B.km |
| 6 | MF | 300 to 3 000 kHz | Hectometric waves | B.hm |
| 7 | HF | 3 to 30 MHz | Decametric waves | B.dam |
| 8 | VHF | 30 to 300 MHz | Metric waves | B.m |
| 9 | UHF | 300 to 3 000 MHz | Decimetric waves | B.dm |

5. On page 46674, in the first column, footnote US396 paragraph (a) of the Table of Frequency Allocations, 47 CFR 2.106, is corrected to read as follows:
(a) Until March 25, 2007, the band 7300-7350 kHz is allocated to the fixed service on a primary basis and to the mobile except aeronautical mobile service on a secondary basis for Federal and non-Federal use. After March 25, 2007, authority to operate in the band 7300-7350 kHz shall not be extended to new non-Federal stations in the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services. After March 25, 2007, Federal and non-Federal stations in the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services shall:
(1) Be limited to communications wholly within the United States and its insular areas;
(2) Not cause harmful interference to the broadcasting service;
(3) Be limited to the minimum power needed to achieve communications; and
(4) Take account of the seasonal use of frequencies by the broadcasting service published in accordance with Article 12 of the ITU Radio Regulations.
6. On page 46674, in the third column, footnote NG142 of the Table of Frequency Allocations, 47 CFR 2.106, is corrected to read as follows:
NG142 TV broadcast stations authorized to operate in the bands 54-72 MHz, 76-88 MHz, 174-216 MHz, 470-608 MHz, and 614-806 MHz may use a portion of the television vertical blanking interval for the transmission of telecommunications signals, on the condition that harmful interference will not be caused to the reception of primary services, and that such telecommunications services must accept any interference caused by primary services operating in these bands.
