So if 30 MHz is OK ( for AM Broadcast and SW radios I think it would be), then if I had to choose between the two I would go with the Heathkit. You wouldn't be able to check the frequency of a generator that is producing a signal for a FM radio (88-108MHz) for instance.

There were a couple of multifunction frequency counters that tested upto 250 Mhz or something like that that were Hewlett-Packard branded ones that were under $40 but they were listed as "as-is" untested condition.
