A frequency counter?...........what do you need a freq counter for? Are you saying it's out of calibration and is running off frequency? As all a frequency counter will do is tell you what frequency you are transmitting on. Or do you just mean, you can't wait to get a "swr meter" to fix it up right?

I thought you'd found a $50 bill laying around and you were now going to buy a CB installation. I've been out of ham radio too long ... (nee WB6MPD).
