Channel 83

Channel 83 was removed from television use in 1983. The highest frequency to have been used for NTSC-M terrestrial TV broadcasting, it was formerly used by a handful of television stations in North America which broadcast on 884-890 MHz.

Many are defunct, with the few still in existence now moved to lower frequencies:
