I've found it easiest to clip on to the end of a resitor located near the 
connector.  I also suggest usng a 10X probe from my scope to connect to the 
input of the frequency counter.

I do suggest you follow all of the steps in the manual and in their specific 
order as there is some "interaction" between the adjustment.  After making 
all of the adjustments, I suggest leaving the test lead connected but just 
slipping the cover on to allow the radio to heat for about 30 min.  Then 
re-check the frequencies.  Some small amount of "touch up" may be needed.
