Your calculator must have one of those fuzzy math chips
in it. The current broadcast television spectrum is 300 MHz
(50 channels numbered 2 - 51). Even less if you subtract
channel 37 and channel 51 (that the FCC is trying to clear
for lower 700 MHz A block users).

If 120 MHz is taken away, that leaves 180 MHz total
and only 108 MHz at UHF.

The Feds are trying to recover about 120 MHz of spectrum from the broadcasters, leaving them with about 240, although a big chunk of this is VHF, which may not be useful for LTE. It is likely that there will be room for two Broadcast LTE bands in the remaining UHF spectrum.
