I am new to the world of SWL. I have a Sangean ATS-505. When I am tuning
in Sw mode, say on 49meters, the freq. in that range is from 5,900 to
6,200Mhz. The ATS505 will display "broadcast band". What are the freqs
between the bands? The next one up is 41meters which covers 7,100 -
7,350Mhz. What are the freqs from 6201 thru 6,999?

What does the term meters mean?

thanks
