[time-nuts] Why these Crystal Frequencies?

[Brooke Clarke]

Hi Pete:

Maybe you can shed some light on the common xtal frequencies table where there's no explanation given?
http://www.prc68.com/I/pdf/Crystal_Freq.pdf
An answer is not it's an "even" frequency or "it's an even binary frequency. That's true for most of these and the 
factors are part of the table above.
The question is why do they exist?
such as:
32.0 kHz
40.0
75.0
76.79
76.8
76.81
96.0
3.072 MHz
4.0
4.096
5.0
6.0
7.3729
8.0
8.192
9.8304
10.0
11.0
11.0592
11.2896
12.0
12.288
12.352

14.31818
15.36

16.384
17.734475
