John,
You do not need a frequency counter to calibrate the K3S, use Method 2
with WWV, it is just as accurate.
Actually it is likely more accurate than you would get with a <$100
frequency counter, unless you calibrate the frequency counter
beforehand. I suspect any frequency counter costing less than $100 is
either inaccurate or limited to audio frequencies.

Amazon has several for <$100. Has anyone had any experience with these?
Are they just a waste of money?
Thanks,
