Jon,

Try zerobeating against a Russian time signal station (forgot the
callsign). Good working frequencies for calibration are 4996 and 9996.
Nice strong and steady signals.

Zero beating WWV isn't so easy here in Norway, so I visited a friend who
has a 
frequency counter. Turned out that the signal level at J1 of the
reference 
oscillator was way too low for his counter.

The manual should probably tell how sensitive the frequency counter has
to be 
for that procedure to work.
