Only old-timers ever used "kilocycle."

What I wanna know is what happened signals in transit when the change
was made from "cycle" to "hertz". How did a signal which left the
transmitter thinking it was 2716 kilocycles find it's way to a receiver
which was tuned to 2716 kilohertz.

Triva question: What worldwide allocation was 2716 kilo(cycles)(hertz)?
