dwh367, kermitdafrog, thanks for your replies. I am familiar with that device. I believe it plugs right into the 520(s), but for the regular 520, you need an additional kit to make it work. So, aside form the fact that the original freq counter is very hard to find, it is also very expensive as you have to buy the counter AND the interface kit.
There is another counter that is available on the web, but it runs about $150, plus you still need the interface kit (more $$. This is not an option for me (too much money just for convenience). I guess I will get used to adding up all the dials and come up with the operating frequency that way. Thanks again.
