I am wondering if it is possible to add a frequency counter to this radio, and I don't mean an inline counter that only reads on transmit. I would like to hard wire one in so I can check my frequency on both TX and RX. What would be a good meter to do this with and how is it wired in. I would like a good 7 digit meter. Thanks in advance everyone.

Hey thanks Chris, Is that FC-390 hard wired right into the radio then?

Thats kinda what i was thinking, Hotwire, if I find some good wiring diagrams or anything I will post them on here. I would just like to know where my radio is at on frequency cause just to hear 90% or people on sideband I have to have my clarifier slid way down, that and I could actaully monitor some of the frequency changes as it happens.

sorry it took so long to post, but Pat is right also if you get the fc 390 counter you'll have to install a jumping in it for it to read the right freq, i have the pics if you need them , just pm me your email and i'll send them

Thanks Pat, greatly appreciated. I am going to have to order a counter this payday so I can have it in the radio in a week or two.
