1.3GHz Frequency counter


I have build this counter after a design that OZ1DV has done, he also did the software


Closeup view, of the input MAR amp, the PCB at the input is a 50ohm strip line, see the extreme short leads around this amp.


The output swing of the prescaler can not drive the 2nd divider, so I have mounted a transistor amp, just made with a BC547


The brain of the counter is a PIC16F84, it does all the display scan, ranges calculation and main counter.
More info about this counter can be found in the Danish HAM mag called "OZ"
