To turn kilocycles to wave lengths merely divide 300,000 by the num- ber of kilocycles at which a station is operated. The result is the sta- tion’s wave length. Thus a station operated at 1,000 kilocyeles has a wave length of 300 meters; a station at 670 kilocycles has a_wave length of 447.7, and so on.
