Universal 2-channel Frequencies/Period counter.

Characteristics:

	A-Channel 10-50-500 MHz
	B-Channel 10 MHz
	Frequency of A
	Ratio A/B
	External Clock
	Count
	Time measurements A/B
	Period A
	Time-Base: 0.01 sec -> 10 sec
	A and B trigger selectable on raising or falling edge

General:

The counter is made of four printed circuits: The power supply, the counter logics, the display and switches are on a board and a preamp/pre-scale board.

Momentarily the preamp board is still on a wire-wrap board because I have not found yet an suitable 500 MHz broadband amplifier. The original prescript amplifier is no longer available in Belgium. If there is someone who has a good suggestion, you're welcome.

سُوۡرَةُ حٰمٓ السجدة / فُصّلَت
ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَهِيَ دُخَانٌ فَقَالَ لَهَا وَلِلْأَرْضِ ائْتِيَا طَوْعًا أَوْ كَرْهًا قَالَتَا أَتَيْنَا طَائِعِينَ ﴿١١
فَقَضَاهُنَّ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ وَأَوْحَىٰ فِي كُلِّ سَمَاءٍ أَمْرَهَا ۚ وَزَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَحِفْظًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ ﴿١٢

Surah Fussilat: Thereafter turned He to the heaven and it was as smoke, and said Unto it and Unto the earth: come ye twain, willingly or loth. They said: we come willingly. (11) Then He decreed them as seven heavens in two days, and revealed Unto each heaven the command thereof; and We bedecked the nether heaven with lamps and placed therein a guard. That is the ordinance of the Mighty, the Knower. (12)

De hemelen en aarde (waren) een samenhangende massa. Wij hebben ze toen van elkaar gescheiden… Wij hebben de hemel tot een beschermend dak gemaakt … en de dag en de nacht, de zon en de maan geschapen. (Koran 41 11:12)
