Wait just a minute.  Those old units should be "kc" and "Mc" to be correct.
The proper units multiplier designations and their abbreviations are:
kilo = k = 1000
Mega = M = 1,000,000
milli = m = .001

That is why the capitalization/non-capitalization of "M/m" is so important.

If your on 20 meters and move to avoid the QRM did you go up 2 Kay Cee's or 2
Kilo Hertz's .   With split what is it?  Up 20 XXX ?

In my opinion with no disrespect, Mr. Hertz was only a man.  KC and MC were
appropriately named as measurements of cycles per second and should not have
been renamed.  Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Few elected officials or their children have ever lived the life of the citizens they represent, nor did their parents or grandparents.

How can they know what you
and I want or need?
