Q

What is the frequency range for Medium Frequency?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Understand the standard ITU radio frequency bands, especially Medium Frequency (MF) vs High Frequency (HF) and Low Frequency (LF) • Know that 1 MHz = 1,000 kHz and be comfortable converting between MHz and kHz • Recall typical maritime uses of the MF band, such as 2182 kHz (old distress/calling frequency)

💭 Think About

• Which answer choice matches the commonly accepted MF band limits used in radio communications (from a few hundred kHz up to a few thousand kHz)? • Look at which options represent medium values between low hundreds of kHz and tens of MHz, rather than very low or very high extremes. • After converting any MHz values to kHz, which range best matches what you remember about 2182 kHz falling squarely inside the MF band?

✅ Before You Answer

• Convert all answers to the same unit (either all in kHz or all in MHz) before you compare them. • Check that your chosen range actually includes 2182 kHz, a classic MF distress/calling frequency. • Eliminate any ranges that are clearly in the HF band (above 3 MHz) or clearly below typical MF values (below about 300 kHz).
