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 the number of megahertz by 1,000:

9.62 (MHz)

×

1000 = 9620 kHz

• To convert from kHz to MHz, divide the number of kilohertz by 1,000:

2780 (kHz)

÷

1000

= 2.780 MHz

• To convert MHz to meters, divide 300 by the number of megahertz:

300

÷

7.1 MHz = 42.25 meters
