UHF
Television broadcast band
UHF stands for ultra-high frequency, designating radio waves in the 300 MHz to 3 GHz range.
UHF channels carried television broadcasts above channel 13, requiring a separate antenna or tuner dial on older sets.
The frequency band is now used for cell phones, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other wireless communications.
