Depends on your frequency counter, you will have to tap into your VCO or IF. Usually the output will be in the high range of 32 to 45 mHz and you counter will have to adjust for this. A buffer may also have to be used as input may be high and the addition of the counter may cause the VCO to unlock or give an error in output frequency.

If is a Uniden Washington with an MB8719 you can use a FC-347 or FC390 Frequency Counter

my counter has an off set setting but I now see it is a little more complicated than that.

Because the Uniden Washington has separate crystals for the USB/LSB TX offsets, the FC-347/FC-390 counters won't read properly on either sideband.

The AM mode will be correct, but USB will read high, and LSB will read low.
