[VoIP] 2600 Dial Pulse

[Peter Duffield]

Hi Jayson

The SI unit for frequency is the Hertz, which is named after the German
physicist Heinrich Hertz.  The correct way to refer to it in writing is 
2600 Hz.  

It meant so much more before they started naming International Standard units
after notable people - cps or cycles per second was clear, concise, and to the
point, and left nothing to the imagination.
