VHF uses the 6 Meter Band (50-54 Mhz), the most popular VHF band - 2 Meter Band (144-148 Mhz) and the 1 1/4 Meter Band (222-225).
UHF uses the most popular UHF band - 70cm Band (420-450 Mhz), the 902-928 Mhz area and the 1200-1300 Mhz area.
VHF: 116-149.975 mhz UHF: 225-399.975 mhz
No. The acronyms stand for different, non-overlapping frequency ranges. Since the #1 immutable requirement for radios to be able to talk to each other is that they be on the same frequency, and since HF, UHF, and VHF radios are by definition on different frequencies, that match would be harder to operate successfully than a mixed marriage.
The waves used to broadcast radio signals are called RF waves and these generally lie in VHF and UHF band of electromagnetic spectrum.
history of vhf radio
No, this is not a wise move to make. The antenna metals are not the same. you have to know that antenna metals are different within all Mhz. 2nd- The connectors are different. CB has a wider coax connector and Uhf us smaller. Radio Range/ distance will be less if you use a short wave antenna known as CB. Best to get a High wave antenna- UHF. 27 Mhz is cb radio and the waves are low and long (about 11 meters). 400-460 Mhz is UHF and the waves are high and short (about 67 centimeters). You would need a UHF radio antenna to get the best SWR. Installing a UHF antenna on a car it would require a proper uhf antenna and coax and drilling and using only a UHF Coax cable with the connector. Or buy the Uhf magnet antenna. They are hard to find in your local city and they are pricy because you cant buy them used or at cb shops. you will have to buy one online or go to a Junk yard and find a Police car that has one on top of car. You can Mod Coax cables only if its a UHF cable and antenna. Grounding a car UHF antenna in house can be difficult. Don't run ground to AC ground! you can damage radio. Run Ground wire to the dirt outside and dig a hole and fix with a little water and keep hot coax separated from ground on uhf. Best is to run this to Gutter on roof. Do not MOD CB coaxes with UHF antenna or mix with magnet antenna or CB, VHF, Marine radios. You will waste your time. 800 Mhz police antenna will be your closest match if you decide to do this. It goes by the wave and wave length. Keep Digging
Yes, a UHF antenna can pick up VHF signals, but not well. The size difference makes the uhf antenna "inefficient" for the longer vhf wave length, but some energy can be received by the uhf antenna.
Different people see the boundar between VHF and UHF differently. I tend to regard UHF as starting at 200 Mhz.
The frequency. Oddly enough, uhf actually stands for Ultra High Frequency and vfh stands for Very High Frequency. VHF for old TV covered the range 90Mhz to 150Mhz UHF for modern TV covers the range 400Mhz to 800Mhz
First, you need an antenna that is both uhf and vhf comaptible. Usuaully it will have a pair of rabbit ears (vhf) and a center loop or plate (uhf). Make sure the rabbit ears are completely extended then just re-scan your channels on your digital box or your hdtv.

VHF is the more common for tv channels, you are probably thinking UHF
I wouldn't think so. The uhf coupler is made NOT to pass vhf freqs. The transmitter and the coupler are made to operate in different bands.
You need a VHF/UHF antenna (channels 2 to 60 ). Check out: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/digitaltv.html
Amplitude and frequency
Digital TV signals are transmitted on VHF starting on channel 2 and ending at the top of the UHF spectrum channel 69. At one time the plan was not to use the VHF band but it didn't work out that way.
it rely depends where you are. UHF stands for ultra high frequency and vhf stands for very high frequency. vhf has ben around longer than UHF making them cheaper to use but UHF means smaller antennas and better output. vhf is better in rural locations with expectations to be used in close proximity because buildings and natural barriers affect them. UHF can easily get through buildings and natural barriers but you pay lots more for them. but any to answer you question they do use both just ask your locals what they use.
