Abstract :
The above paper describes briefly calculations required in the parallel wire system used by the Bureau of Standards for radio frequency standardization. Formulas involving a correction term are given by means of which the standard frequency can be calculated from the distance between two consecutive maximum settings along the parallel wire system. A numerical example is added, showing the magnitude of the correction term.
