FM radio channel assignments in the US
In the United States, frequency-modulated broadcasting stations operate in a
frequency band extending from 87.8 MHz to 108.0 MHz, for a total of 20.2
MHz. It is divided into 100 channels, each 0.2 MHz wide, designated "channel
200" through "channel 300." To receive a station, an FM receiver is tuned to
the center frequency of the station's channel. The lowest channel, channel
200, extends from 87.8 MHz to 88.0 MHz; thus its center frequency is 87.9
MHz. Channel 201 has a center frequency of 88.1 MHz, and so on, up to
channel 300, which extends from 107.8 to 108.0 MHz and has a center
frequency of 107.9 MHz.

...
I'm in Mountain View, CA and trying to find station KSFH-FM, which is an
FCC-licensed Class "D" station. It is owner by a local school, and when

I
call
them they say they're on the air with programming. I am 1 mile from the

campus
and can SEE the antenna. I tune to every channel from 88.1 to 107.9 MHz.
Nothing, except, of course, the other stations normally heard. I also

try
holding my antenna sideway, vertical, every which way.
I call the FCC office in San Francisco and they say yes they're a legal
station, and they should reach at least 3 miles, so try again. Again

nothing.
What is going on?
