Hertz...lack of accuracy regarding frequency units.

Yes Chuck is correct.
cycles/second = Hertz
and
cycles = Hertz seconds
Also mHz would be millihertz, and MHz is megahertz, similarly mc/s is
millicycles per second and Mc/s is megacycles per second. Strangely
enough kilohertz and kilocycles per second are kHz and kc/s NOT KHz or
Kc/s. KHz and Kc/s would be Kelvin Hertz and Kelvin cycles per second.
Kelvin Hertz was Heinreich Hertz's little brother.
