In Toulouses example you would tune the Chrystal osc to the frequency of the station and listen for the zero beat then tune for minimum signal on the S-meter (exact frequency zero beat).

Ok, I get it now. So then somehow I would basically have to somehow tune the crystal oscillator in the frequency counter to the same frequency as the 10 Mhz signal of WWV in Colorado. And then tuning a shortwave radio to that same frequency and adjust the oscillator in the frequency counter until they cancel each other out in a sense on a tuning meter?
