I'm new here, but you may get some ideas from this page if you find nothing
that directly fits your needs.

> Hi All,

> For over 12 years I have been running a HP53131 12 digit counter and the
freeware Agilent IntuiLink Connectivity Software via an old NI IEEE-488 GPIB
to Ethernet.
>
> From a functionality point of view it is by far the best counter I have
used. Coupled with Intuilink S/W in EXCEL as an add-ins, graphs, long term
statistics and drift performance can be presented easily. I recently
installed a HP10811 as an after market add-on,  as a portable device it's
now as accurate as any portable counter can be.

> Although the 53131 with no options is limited to 250 MHz, my next project
is a channel C prescaler that will take the unit to 3GHz or beyond.

> If any one has added a home brew Channel C, please let me know how it
turned out.
