Yo Bubba Dudes!,
There are two choices for digital readouts for the SP 600.
There's an article in ER magazine where a cheap chicom frequency counter that had IF offset capability could be used when doing single conversion. Cheap. About $15-$20 but you needed a low voltage power supply.
I bought a far more elegant professional unit from Electronics Specialty Products. It is the DD101H. It has a LCD display and cost $110 with shipping. It automatically switches when double conversion is used. It's only limitation is that it doesn't work on 6 meters with the SP 600, which wasn't a problem for me.
As for me, I rather pay the $190 for the A or $110 for the SP 600 readout that to even try to roll-my-own. I get enough pain in other ways. I live in Californicate.
Regards,
Perrier
