[sdiy] Cheap frequency counter for oscillator calibration

[Eric Frampton]

Do you have an iPhone? I'm very fond of the Peterson Strobe Tuner app for that. $10 or so IIRC. Same great accuracy as their standalone units, and you can't beat the convenience. Having used a frequency counter to tune oscillators, I'd advise against it if you're out for speed.
