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 nec-
essary 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 megahertz.
