Portable instrument capable of measuring any frequency within the range of 10 to 100 mhz w/an accuracy of porm 0.001 pct. Uses the heterodyne principle for determining the frequency of an unknown signal; measurement is accomplished by heterodyning a known signal from the test instrument against the unknown signal. Check points are used to calibrate the instrument throughout its operating range. Used to test the following avionics systems: an/arc-44; an/arc-45; an/arc-54; an/arc-60; an/arc-73; an/arn-32; an/frc-15; an/trc-68; an/urc-35c; r-508/arc, and r-509/arc
