FREQUENCY CONVERSION
The tuning location of a station can be ex-
pressed in frequency (kHz or MHz) or in
wavelength (meters). The following informa-
tion can help you make the necessary con-
versions.
1 MHz (million) = 1,000 kHz (thousand)
To convert MHz to kHz, multiply the number
of megahertz by 1,000:
30.62 (MHz) x 1000 = 30,620 kHz
To convert from kHz to MHz, divide the num-
ber of kilohertz by 1,000:
127,800 (kHz) / 1000 = 127.8 MHz
To convert MHz to meters, divide 300 by the
number of megahertz:
300/50 MHz = 6 meters
