Default Re: Measuring Resonant Frequency

Thanks for your reply Al, I originally connected the LC directly across the signal generator, but as I didn't seem to be getting any clear results, presumably due to the reasons you and Ron said, I tried it in series, this gave the results I listed, I've attached a very crude sketch showing the layout.
Thanks to you as well Ron, I'll re-run the test both ways to see how it goes, I'm not after anything too accurate, just to make sure the variable cap' is able to tune it.
