Heh, I could care less about typos. I just honestly didn't understand what
you meant. The best matches I could come up with was "bubble counter" and
"doubler". And since a bubble counter made no sense in this context and a
doubler did, I thought I'd go with that guess and run with it.

One thing working in your favor is that the actual BFO frequency is way
