  • Abstract
    A secondary frequency standard is described in which standard frequencies are derived from a 5-megacycle oscillator by a series of frequency dividers. The advantage of obtaining standard frequencies by frequency division rather than by frequency multiplication is pointed out and the characteristics of the regenerative frequency dividers used are discussed.
