"Tom Taylor \(MSTV\)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What I do is take an old non-ham-band crystal of the correct size and unscrew the little top cover plate. I remove the old crystal inside and then solder the new, but much smaller crystal inside to the pins. Then I screw the cover plate back on the crystal and I'm good to go. Occasionally I'll have to use a Dremel to route out the interior of the crystal holder to make room for the "crystal within a crystal."

Just wondering if there are any adapters out there to fit these small crystals into or if there's a way to do this another way. thanks 73 Jason N1SU ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [email protected] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [email protected] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
