The current text states, The general control algorithm for LFC was developed by Nathan Cohn in 1971, referencing just the Cohn's work. However, the LFC with ACE was known well before that (it is easy to find the descriptions that date to early 1960s). So a reliable third party source is needed to credit Cohn with this invention.

"This is used by some clocks to accurately maintain their time." How is time accurately maintained when frequency is variable? 122.151.210.84 ( talk) 12:26, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
In the section 40Hz there is a sentence that purports that 5000 alterations per minute are 41 and two thirds Hertz, but I don't understand how this can be the case. Hertz being the number of alterations in a second meaning that in one minute at 1 hertz there would be 60 alterations.
Conversely, 5000 alterations in a minute would correspond to 83 and 1/3 Hertz Aethalides ( talk) 18:58, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
