Hi Ravi, Copied to the group for instruction purposes. If the scope is fully calibrated, perhaps. My scope does not have the precision needed for aligning a PLL. Especially true when it’s a voltage-controlled oscillator. The first tuning point is to have 8V at 110MHz using both a frequency

Hey Bill, Wouldn't an oscilloscope be the best tool for the job here? Alternatively - I just picked up a couple of these to serve as backups for my Fluke 117 - only $20, and just horsing around, I've already measured frequencies up to 144 MHz: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B015OFMUYO

Howdy All, Does anyone have a vacuum tube voltmeter that can be borrowed/purchased? Including the probe. Doing PLL alignment and I need to measure at 100MHz. Your normal AC voltmeter does NOT work at these frequencies. 73 Bill Crowell, N4HPG Pearland, TX n4...@comcast.net
