Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

The 'speed' we're talking about here is the speed of radio waves,
which is the same as the speed of 'light' ... 299,792,458 m/s .
It's a tiny tiny tiny bit slower than that in air, but anyway let's
just use the easy rounded figure of 3 x 10⁸ m/s .

Wavelength = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (95.5 x 10⁷ Hz) = 314 millimeters
