Default inexpensive analog audio pitch (frequency?) meter or schematic / plans for one?

I am not skilled in electronics -- do you know of
any schematics I could follow to build one of these?


If you're not skilled in electronics, you're wasting your time. Buy a
commercial unit and be done with it.

Go to a music store (one that sells musical instruments) and ask for a tuning
meter. Korg is a brand many stores carry.

In fairness to the original poster... Once upon a time you could buy Heath
or Knight or EICO or other electronics kits, to save money, learn about
electronics, or just have fun. Most currently available kits don't do much
useful and are overpriced.

Lots (mostly digital with faux analog displays) to pick from for
between $10 and $20. I just bought this one at a local music store for
$15 or so, batteries included.

Good grief. One of those rare human beings who actually understands the
difference between analog and digital. Congratulations!

There are 10 kinds of people in the world:

Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
