wavelength help

[biferi]

Can someone help with what this meens?

Wavelengths km and cm I get this then I saw just m
what is this

 

[hookedon6]

about 39 1/2 inches?

 

[biferi]

what I ment was this
km wavelength is kilometter but wen you just see m like 10 m what is this meen

It means the 10 meter band 28.000~29.700mhz

 

[biferi]

ok I think I get it
so if I see a wavelength of 10 km it meens ten kilometer band and if I see 10 m it meens ten meter band?

Hi biferi,

No, there are NO radio wavelengths in "kilometers." That's way too long

It's kilohertz (khz) that you are seeing.

Radio BANDS are in {meters) 160M, 80M, 40M, 10M and so on.....

Not if he is talking about LF and VLF. Anything below 300 KHz is over a kilometer long. Lot's of foreign regional broadcasters down there.
