I have two meters on the back of my house, one electric and one gas. They are about 8 inches across. so doing the math tells me the 27 meter wave was about 18 feet.

27 meters = 90 feet. I can't understand the inability of some folks to do the conversions in their heads. It's just another measuring system.

I have a multimeter but there is no metric conversion on it.

Why do these other countries insist on using these obscure units of measurement? Meters, litres, grams, etc. Are they just trying to confuse the heck out of the rest of us?
