      @@TonyAlbus So if i was to hook up a frequency counter to a stereo or a reel to reel on the output of the machines what would i be checking and what would be the benefit? have a frequency counter and a signal generator. I know that you use the signal generator to find faults in the circuits but i don't know the use of the frequency counter. I also know that you can hook them up to an Oscilloscope but i haven't learned the purpose of doing that,

    WOW you have 5 counters. I have one from the stone age i haven't used well since the stone age. Just not something i use anymore. Its easily been a decade since i used it. I use my DSO for measuring frequency and for what i do thats good enough. Have you ever tried using an SA with a really small RBW like 100 or even 10Hz for measuring. If you have an H field probe no actual connection or termination needed. Thx for sharing.

    Excellent video!!! Your simplification is perfect, for us non RF guys with no knowledge!!! Gate time now makes sense to me, after this video. I’ve had function generator based counters for some time, never understood any of this. Still don’t have a use for this, but I would like to at some point.
    What are some other uses for this accuracy? Baring RF application and possibly GPS with it’s time accuracy requirements. I understand a counter can be used for time accurate circuits?
    Still waiting your newer video on your GPS discipline counter. I normally don’t post on your videos until I understand it.

    I used to have both an earlier generation and the model shown of the Aim-TTI counter. Both were lovely instruments, but let down a bit by the display I think - especially given their price.

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  Před rokem

      Agree Greg, the TTi is a great counter, its super stable and great for mobile use, but i sold it also because of the strange form factor and display.

      Hello Francesco, this is one solution, but it is not cheap, its a PLL conversion board that runs on external, i used it for 25MHz ref. to connect to 10MHz GPSDO: czcams.com/video/64HS88gCC8I/video.html
      and i build it later in a case: czcams.com/video/Iocfuz9ruNU/video.html

    The 2 different BNC inputs on my Phillips PM6674 can be confusing i assume the 1megohm is the same as an oscilloscope input and you can attatch a scope probe ?.

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  Před měsícem +1

      Yes the high impedance is for lower frequencies and you can use a probe.. so you have less influance on the circuit you are measuring.
      for higher frequencies you need to be careful for reflections, then a lower impedance is better.
