BC-221 folks,

All the LM and BC-221 frequency meters I have contain a one megacycle 
crystal for calibration, yet the above link says:

"Three tubes with a builtin crystal (250KHz) calibrator produces audio 
output every 250KHz. "

Also, my frequency meters create a host of beat notes, some loud some not 
so loud all across the range, not just every 250 kc.  Looks to me like the 
author of the entries copied one erroneous entry for each of the BC-221 
units listed.
