FREQUENCY CONVERSION
The tuning location of a station can be expressed in frequency
(kHz or MHz) or in wavelength (meters). The following information
can help you make the necessary conversions.
1 MHz (million)=1,000 kHz (thousand)
To convert MHz to kHz, multiply by 1,000.
30.62 MHz x 1000=30620 kHz
To convert from kHz to MHz, divide by 1,000.
=127.8 MHz
To convert MHz to meters, divide 300 by the number of mega-
hertz.
