It's also interesting to listen to someone brag about how his or hers 
new wiz bang super dupper radio can read the frequency out to 15 
decimals.  I hate to mention that the readout depends on how accurate 
and stable the time base is that the readout uses.  That"s why most 
manufacturers offer a optional and expensive add on time base.  Unless 
it's locked to one of the GPS systems no telling how close it is to the 
correct frequency.  That's one of the differences between the $4.95 and  
$200 digital voltmeters.
