[sdiy] Looking for info on freq. counters (SDIY-compatible ;)

[l'es chupacabra]

Question - what are frequency counters good for if not tuning/calibrating
VCO/LFOs?  I've seen statements like yours before and always wondered.  I've
got to pick up a multimeter pretty soon and wondering if it's worth it to
narrow the search to one that includes a freq. counter.

Thanks,

JP
