BEAT FREQUENCY INDICATOR

Schematic:

Notes:

This circuit uses LEDs to display the beat frequency of two-tone oscillators. Only one LED is on at a time, and the apparent rotation of the dot is an exact indication of the best frequency. When f1 is greater than f2, a dot of light rotates clockwise; when fl is less than f2, the dot rotates counterclockwise; and when f1 equals f2, there is no rotation.
