Comments on: How can I measure my output frequency of my Ham radio while it is being operated using a Heathkit IM2410 ? http://audiograveyard.info/other-electronics/how-can-i-measure-my-output-frequency-of-my-ham-radio-while-it-is-being-operated-using-a-heathkit-im2410 All About vintage pro audio Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:11:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: onegammyleg http://audiograveyard.info/other-electronics/how-can-i-measure-my-output-frequency-of-my-ham-radio-while-it-is-being-operated-using-a-heathkit-im2410#comment-383 onegammyleg Tue, 03 Mar 2009 14:01:05 +0000 http://audiograveyard.info/other-electronics/how-can-i-measure-my-output-frequency-of-my-ham-radio-while-it-is-being-operated-using-a-heathkit-im2410#comment-383 If it is for testing the transceiver the best way is to connect up a dummy load with a sense port connection ,,and plug the counter into the sense port. This will allow you to TX at full power into the load but the counter only see's a small voltage, and thus it is protected. The IM2410 I think has only a input connection , so its not easy to hook it in-line with the transceiver to monitor the frequency during normal operation. There should be no need to do this anyway as the radio has digital readout , and it should be accurate enough.
