I've always wondered why FM was moved to the higher band.

For that matter, sometime in the late 50s, as I was planning to get my 
first FM radio, there was an article in the newpaper about FCC plans to 
make the FM band smaller.  My mother wondered whether I ought to wait 
before buying an FM radio, but I wanted one, and the FCC never did go 
through with those plans.
