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:
30.62 (MHz) × 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
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your scanner is not working as it should, these suggestions might help you eliminate the
problem. If the scanner still does not operate properly, take it to your local RadioShack
store for assistance.
