[Elecraft] Tenna Dipper, part II...

[Rob Locher]

There is also the KD1JV digital frequency counter kit that could be used  
to modify your Tenna Dipper, so that it has a digital LED for the  
frequency.

I don't have either kit, yet.  Has anyone tried adding the KD1JV frequency  
counter kit to the Tenna Dipper?
