Not to rain on anyone's parade, but I think I remember the terms and abbreviations were:
Microfarads (mf) as in "a 0.1mf wax impregnated paper condenser" Micromicrofarads (mmf) as in a "3-section 365mmf air variable condenser for the TRF receiver. As I recall, it generally was kilocycles (kc or kcs) through ten meters, and thereafter megacycles (mc or mcs) up to what is now known as 1GHz (which was called a kilomegacycle [kmcs]). Anything above a few kilomegacycles hadn't been invented yet. I have learned to begin with "I think I remember," because often I really don't remember. 73 and Happy Holidays to all Fred K6DGW Auburn CA CM98lw Ron D'Eau Claire wrote: > > Larry, N8LP wrote: > > Guilty on the age charge!
