Actually 'subharmonic' is a technically valid term. While not often
used in hf radio it is frequently used in mathematical contexts when
talking about sets of periodic functions, in microwave circuit design,
and acoustics used in analyzing musical instruments and synthesizers
where they are also refered to as 'undertones'. It is used both as one
word or hyphenated, I'm not really sure which would be more correct.
