Question

– Why do most (if not all) radio stations end with an odd number?

In: 9

Answer 1

This depends on what country you live in. In the US and Canada, all FM stations end in an odd digit, that way any two stations will be at least 0.2 MHz apart so as to minimize possible interference between stations.

In the UK, all FM stations are even numbers for the same reason. In continental Europe, stations can be as little as 0.1 MHz apart, so the numbers can be even or odd.
