As I recall you can command it to centre on the counted frequency. Thus, afc
when making measurements in 20 Hz
Very odd that a standard AM broadcast should be off by more than a few Hz.
In fact, in the 60s, when BC stations had real blue papered engineers on
watch, we found the TX crystals were more accurate than the GR freq monitor.
