FREQUENCY CONVERSION
The tuning location of a station can be expressed in fre-
quency (kHz or MHz) or in wavelength (meters). The fol-
lowing information can help you make the necessary
conversions.
1 MHz (million) = 1,000 kHz (thousand)
To convert MHz to kHz, multiply the number of MHz by
1,000:
30.62 MHz
×
1000 = 30,620 kHz
To convert from kHz to MHz, divide the number of kHz by
1,000.
127,800 kHz
÷
1000 = 127.8 MHz
To convert MHz to meters, divide 300 by the number of
MHz.
300
÷
50 MHz = 6 meters
