FC4: 500MHZ
Frequency Counter and RF Meter
Graphic CPU used in FC4 is a core of
our "INFINITY" Project and is
developed keeping in mind that we use same CPU/LCD/Hardware for
various Purposes or Projects, saving a lot of money in
hardware.
This is important for
homebrewers because RF measurement some times, is only a one
time a month (or a year!) requirement in a Radio Room!!
FC4 is a 500MHZ Frequency
Counter and RF Meter designed to work as an USB device for your PC.
FC4 also works
with "Infinity" Graphic CPU.
A PC program (WIN7) is developed
by Tony/I2TZK.
