VHF is considered 88 to 174MHz - this starts at Broadcast Radio, Air, HAM,
then into commercial and marine - there is no real 'free' space other than
HAM radio.  Here in BC VHF is very commonly used and even though I do not
have a commercial licence nobody cares as it is a big safety factor on the
logging roads - there are also three "BS" channels that are common 'logging'
frequencies that are designed for truck to truck communications.

...and from what I remember, VHF is illegal here in the states on a land
based system. I think they are reserved for watercraft and possibly planes.
Might be wrong on this, I've been wrong before, but it's a shot.
