The atomic beam flop-in magnetic-resonance method was employed to measure the hyperfine structure separation DELTA /sub nu / and the nuclear magnetic moment mu /sub I/ in the /sub 2/S/sub 1/2/ , electronic ground state of the 12.4-h potassium-42. The results are: DELTA nu (K/sup 42/) = 1258.877(4) Mc/sec; u/sub I/(k/sup 42/) =-1.1395(30) nuclear magnetons (diamagnetic correction not included). With these values, estimates of the hyperfine structure anomaly with respect to other potassium isotopes can be made: /sup 39/ DELTA /sup 42/ = +0.20(25)%, /sup 40 DELTA /sup 42/ =-0.25(25)%, /sup 41/ DELTA / sup 42/ =
