Years ago, Ralph SANSERINO and/or John
KOLB manufactured digital readout units (0.1) for
the FRG-7 and possibly some analog receivers, as
I recall. Not certain if we carried them at Radio
West (mute point as they're out of business), but
they were around for a while. Back then, a
read-out to xxx.1 kHz was a big deal.
By the time I was on Okinawa for my
first all-expense paid tour (1976-79),
Charlie-san (as in Taylor) had hooked me up with
a PFM unit that continued to work throughout my
3+ years on The Rock of Japan, despite my
recurring drooling problem, hi. Readout was
xxx.001 kHz, and I still have my logs somewhere around here.
