 I take it that the first table column is Frequency?
 50 MHhz thru 24 MHz?

 Or am i rong?

	You're correct about the column being frequency but misinterpreted the frequency.  5000 kHz is only 5 MHz so range is from 5 MHz to 2.4 MHz.  The lower frequency limit was set by the maximum size of the variable capacitor in the Q meter.  While it's possible to add external capacitors to extend the frequency range I didn't have any of low enough loss to make the measurement meaningful.
