Has anyone heard just what frequencies might be allocated to the old TV
UHF/VHF audio bands?

Don't think any frequencies will be allocated to the audio bands.
Most of the frequencies given up are from 475 to 889.

Here's all the audio frequencies.

Justis,

The Frequencies have not been Abandoned :
No 'public' Plans have been Announced to date.

IMHO the Best most practical use of two of the former
VHF Analog TV Channels is to Expand the FM Band !
"HD" Radio makes sense in an "Expanded" FM Radio
Band to cover 76 MHz to 88 MHz to create and additional
60 Digital Audio Radio Channels for many of the AM/MW
Radio Stations to Transition to . . .
Simply by using the TV Spectrum from the former Analog
VHF Channels 5 and 6.

The future of Terestrial Radio is in FM HD-Radio Broadcasting.

The FCC should have simply left the AM/MW Radio Band
remain Analog and simply fade away.

Why Not ! - Leave AM Radio Alone {Analog Only}

The Best short-term uses of FM HD-Radio Channels are...

I believe the frequencies that are going away completely from TV are those
Ch. 60 and above. Even if you have a TV sound radio that receives the UHF
channels, you won't hear anything up there, as even if it's 'audio', it will
be digital.
