I sympathize with Tom. We honor people by adopting their name for measurements and thereby lose what the original designations provided.
Of course back in the 50's and 60's there were many who objected if we didn't use the complete designation including the time as in "cycles per second", and so on. Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- Cycles are oscillation measurements. Mr Herz was a man who passed away many years ago. I prefer the use of cycles, because they indicate the exact type of the measurement, but I'm just an old geezer who prefers many aspects of the old days. Glad to hear that my selling of the old HP Analog Signal generator was a good idea. Tom N5GE On Wed, 13 Apr 2011 17:08:00 -0600, Doug Person <[email protected]> wrote: >10 megacycle?
