    Interesting video, thanks, Paul. As Ascania links to the pdf manual below, that frequency counter can be calibrated with the pot on the back, if necessary. A nice swag bag, there.

    This type of frequencymeter is suitable for use in radiorecivers. They can subtract intermedate frequency.

    I have a frequency counter like that. My unit is good to 2400 MHz. After messing with the menu buttons, I was able to make it match to the readings that I get on my Protek B2000 frequency counter. I have it monitoring the output of my RF generator. The display on mine is also bright blue with the illumination set for 5.

    Re: Frequency Counter... Maybe you already considered that possibility...
    I think I see some trimmers of some type in the view you provided.
    If so... Maybe they are for calibrating it?

    I believe those are carbon/clay composition resistors. Resistivity is controlled by clay vs. carbon content.
    TCXO is temperature COMPENSATED crystal oscillator; they vary the crystal's voltage to shift its frequency back after a temperature change. We can expect about 0.01% from TCXO and you demonstrate about 6-8 times that. I suspect that the compensation is not correctly calibrated. Try heating/cooling the crystal a bit. Personally, I would spring for temperature control -- assuming the counter is stable.

    If those 50 ohm resistors are wire wound, they will not work for RF applications.
    Nice haul, especially the resistors that look like the old school US color coded. Thanks and ☮️

    The title made me think of the song "Slow hole to China" by Clutch, and so that's cool, good song lol. that's all

    Are they calibration trimmers on the frequency counter? Maybe they need a bit of a tweak. Best wishes Paul.

    12:04 VCTCXO does not use oven and can be quite small in SMD form factor; typical applications are mobile telecom (cell phones) ... newer MEMS VCTCXO can be even smaller; OCXO uses oven and is definitely not on that board. Great video! Some instructions may be on CZcams...

      ​​​​@@learnelectronics I looked at the manual for a visually similar frequency counter board (PLJ-8LED-H) and it specified the vctcxo as a "5032" package. Taitien TLEARKJATF-10.000000? I can't read the print on the chips in your video ...
      There are at least two variations -C and -H on the frequency counter so possibly infinite clone variations. This vid shows oscillator and trim pot: czcams.com/video/MGNRo2G30xc/video.html

    In the description under this video is a link to the manual for the fequency counter: czcams.com/video/dqqkkShhiBI/video.html
    Maybe it helps

    What would be an ideal price range for a 5v 1F super capacitor?
