Accuracy of 774 ABC Melbourne frequency?

(1/1)

Circlotron:
Trying to zero beat the function generator by ear to the above station. Fades to a minimum every 1 minute 8 seconds with f/g set to 773,999.832 Hz. That set frequency is about 0.2ppm difference from the nominal 774KHz. How accurate might that particular station have it's carrier frequency set to?

dave_k:
Broadcasting Services (Technical Planning) Guidelines 2007, Appendix 1

"Unless otherwise specified, the frequency of the carrier shall be maintained within ±10 Hz."

Seems as though they are well within spec...

German_EE:
10 Hz, try harder, I can measure down to 0.1 millihertz at home.
