13 The remaining radio stations operating in North America on 87.7 FM were forced to cease operations as the digital television transition in the United States completed its final phase. The stations (nicknamed "Franken-FMs") on 87.7 were legally analog low-power television stations whose audio subcarriers are audible on FM radios; the transition forced them to adopt either ATSC or ATSC 3.0.

Venture must report after 90 and 180 days any interference reports to the FCC. Three other stations were granted similar authority in the subsequent days.
