Dear Elecrafters:
As we all marvel at what Elecraft can do in a tiny box, some of us are
also stuck in the past.
My first "commercial" radio was a Heathkit DX20. After I upgraded
around Dec 1966, I sold it in early 1967 so I could buy a radio with
SSB.
About 15 years ago, I ran across a DX at a local hamfest and bought
it. Since then, I've been collecting (slowly) FT243 crystals, as I
find them available locally. It's time to expand my search.
Do you have any FT243 (sometimes labeled as Z2) crystals collecting
dust that you'd like to offer up for my collection?
My mailing address is current at all URL lookups.
Here is what I have so far:

I also have three identical crystals in FT243 format that read:
Channel 16, 21.6 MC on the top of a "large" housing (compared to the
novice xtals).
On the side = CR - 3/U CBVZ
Each has a round, red Jan sticker on the opposite side. If I tap the
housing, I can feel something inside vibrating (but I can't feel
21.3MC...).
Any ideas?
Thanks!
