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:
30.62 (MHz) x 1000 =
30,620 kHz
To convert from kHz to MHz,
divide the number of kilohertz by
1,000:
127,800 (kHz) / 1000 =
127.8 MHz
To convert MHz to meters, divide
300 by the number of megahertz:
300 / 50 MHz =
6 meters
