Science: Kilocycles

The term ” kilocycle ” will eventually supplant ” wavelength “in the jargon of the radio fan. The U. S. Bureau of Standards has approved it. Abbreviate it kc. The frequency will be expressed in thousands of cycles per second—in other words, kilocycles. To transmute wavelengths to kilocycles, divide 300,000 by the number of meters, or to obtain meters, divide 300,000 by kilocycles.
