in my view a Marconi TF995 would do all of what you need, but it is "old tech".... Valve operated, a warm up time would be required for reasonable stability. However attaching a frequency counter to it would provide an accurate reading, and highlight the stability.
Wendy knows I've said this before - but my 995A/2M does everything I want it to do - the metalwork takes a long time to come up to temperature and a stock of 6AK5's would be handy too. I gave up using a frequency counter to check the frequency and found a cheap-ish digital transistor radio with HF and SSB (Degen 1103/Tecsun PL600) much quicker and close enough to get into the passband of my receivers.
