Megahertz (MHz)
The megahertz (MHz) equals one million hertz — a common unit for FM radio, amateur bands, and processor clock references.
Megahertz appears in broadcast band listings, RF engineering, and the classic AM/FM radio frequency dial.

Short background on the units used in this conversion.
The megahertz (MHz) equals one million hertz — a common unit for FM radio, amateur bands, and processor clock references.
Megahertz appears in broadcast band listings, RF engineering, and the classic AM/FM radio frequency dial.
Wavelength in metres is a reciprocal unit: frequency in hertz equals the speed of light divided by wavelength. At 1 metre, frequency is 299,792,458 hertz.
Metre-scale wavelengths describe long-wave radio, geophysical signals, and introductory physics problems linking f and λ.
m = MHz × 299.792458MHz = m × 299.792458, using the same exact factors as this converter.
