Hi Bert,
The service manual for the 5300B is on the keysight.com site under manuals.

Do you have a frequency reference (house standard) that you can use to
adjust the reference in the counter? See the manual.
Regards,
Tom

Subject: [time-nuts] HP 5300B - HP 5308A Counter Time Base Question...
I was recently given a HP-5300B / 5308A counter. I thought it might be
handy when I'm at an AM broadcast transmitter and needed to make "rough"
frequency measurements. It turns out that at 1000 kHz it reads about 4.5
Hz high. Looking inside I'm not sure if there's a time base adjustment. I
looked at the on-line manuals available and I don't find any reference to
adjusting the time base frequency. Does anyone here know anything about
these counters? Is there a schematic available? I'm not looking for
precision, but 4.5 Hz at 1 MHz seems a tad much.
