Default Re: Black Star Meteor 1000 Counter.

Hello all,

At the moment I have other things on the bench so no room to play with the counter and signal generator.
I have not tried any cures for this problem as yet but will do so as soon as possible.

Yes, I could turn the counter off but I use it to monitor the generator output frequency.
As I mentioned, most of the noise was being picked up by the meter leads, disconnecting them reduced the noise to much lower level.

I do have another counter a Racal 9901 (only does up to 50 Meg) that puts out next to nothing if anything at all.

Will post any results later.

Best wishes
Dave.
