Jomargra .why the ils glide path is not affected gs is in the uhf range and tv is also in the uhf . .fm immunity relates in reality solely to the bottom end of the vhf nav band and solely to receivers .it all happened when the government sold off the 'guard band' the gap in the frequency allocation between fm broadcasting and aircraft navigation so the fm broadcasters now come right up to the edge by 108 mhz but not the tv broadcasters exemple 437 To make the ils-localizer receiver less susceptible to interference from commercial fm-stations (radio and television).To make the ils-localizer receiver less susceptible to interference from commercial fm-stations (radio and television).
