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 ¸...

REPLACING THE FUSES
The fuses in the scanner’s DC power
cord and DC cigarette-lighter power
cord help protect your scanner from
power surges and short circuits. If the
fuse in the DC power cord has blown,
replace it with a 1-amp, fast-acting
glass fuse (such as RadioShack Cat.
No. 270-1005). For the fuse in the DC
cigarette-lighter power cord, replace it
with a 2-amp, fast-acting glass fuse
(such as RadioShack Cat. No. 270-
1007).
Warnings:
