Please note the difference between "None" and "Off-air":
"None" indicates that a sub carrier signal was never detected on that frequency.
"Off-air" indicates that a sub carrier signal was broadcasting but is no longer.
FM sub carrier (SCA) broadcasts can be received using special FM receivers or modified FM receivers.
