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) x 1,000 = 30,620 kHz

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

127.800 (kHz) / 1,000 = 127.8 MHz

To convert MHz to meters, divide

300 by the number of megahertz:

300/50 MHz = 6 meters

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you have problems with your scanner, please refer to the following chart for some suggestions that might help you eliminate the problem. If the scanner is still not operating correctly after trying these tips, take your scanner to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
