Quote:To do what you describe above, you don't really need a counter or any modifications. I am not advising against it. In fact, if you'll enjoy doing the mod's, then go for it, but .... more economically, to get your sig-gen frequency set all you need is a newer, digital radio to listen to the sig-gen. That will be as accurate as you'll need, given that your sig-gen will drift a little bit all the time that you are using it. For basic AM/SW radios it will be fine and even a little bit of drift will not materially affect your alignment work.
Well I would also be doing some work on AM/FM Radios as well as AM/FM Stereo Receivers. But for the most part most of the radios I work on are older AM/SW or AM only radios.
But this Signal Generator does have a Vernier Style Tuner which is a little bit easier to dial in than a Non-Vernier Tuner.
