Hello all, I was looking for a PDC-256 freq counter, the one that wires into radio. I notice that there not manufactured any more. I do notice Copper has the FC-347, I know these plug into certain radio's, but can they also be wired into say a older Grant or Cobra Rig?......Any input would be great.....Thanks

Yes, I run an FC-347 on my Uniden Grant XL.

Snapperhead,

Yes, the FC-347 comes with a pre-made Jumper and an extra harness for wiring it direct to radios such as the Cobra 148GTl and SS3900 and wiring instructions.

Hope this helps,

This great little frequency counter takes away all the guess work and takes up very little space and even has a bright or dim display with green numbers. The best addition to any radio it will work on, very sound investment for the complete DX station.

The PDC 256 was discontinued around 1996. I wish they were still available. I have seen a few still for sale out there.
