I think either a frequency counter or oscilloscope would be the most logical
choices. A freq. counter would be more precise, unless you got one of the
more expensive scopes with the readouts of frequencies, voltages, and what
not.

I'm not really sure how accurate the handheld voltmeters with frequency
measurement are. I guess they'd be pretty accurate (?).
