    DESCRIPTION The 5342A Frequency Counter is particularly useful in the communication field since it can tolerate an FM carrier frequency of up to 50MHz peak to peak.
  • Provides automatic frequency measurement to 18GHz in a highly portable package
  • Selectable input attenuation of 50 ohms and 1 Mohm
  • Two input frequency ranges: 10Hz to 500MHz & 500MHz to 18GHz.
  • Utilizes microprocessor technology
  • Keyboard allows you to perform various math functions to allow for such things as IF offsets
  • An 11-digit display is sectionalized for easy readout to 1Hz resolution
