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
