    A frequency of 60 MHz is close to the lower end of the old VHF-TV band.

    c = f λ ... where c is the speed of light, f is the frequency and λ is the wavelength

    λ = c / f = 3.00x10^8 m/s / 6.0x10^7 1/s

    λ = 5.0 m

    Wavelenght is the distance between two crests of a wave. The formula for that is

    λ = v/f

    where λ is the wavelenght, v is the speed and f is the frequency. To slove this, we first convert the frequency to basic units:

    60 MHz = 60,000,000 Hz

    Then we put the frequency and the speed at the formula:

    λ = 3*108/60000000

    λ = 0.0000054 m
