ABSTRACT
An American record issued in 1926-1927 by the Northwest Phonograph and Supply Co., St. Paul/ Minneapolis, Minnesota. Masters came from Gennett. Only 21 items were released, mostly dance music. Vaughn De Leath and Vernon Dalhart were among the popular vocalists on the label. [Henriksen 1975; Rust 1978.]
The name often given to the unit of frequency formerly identified as one cycle per second. This designation, in use since 1967, was derived from the name of Heinrich R. Hertz, German physicist. One kilohertz (kHz) equals 1,000 cycles per second; one megahertz (MHz) equals 1,000,000 cycles per second.
