I use X, since it also works for SPICE hierarchy. But who says the "proper" designation for a crystal is "Y". Who says *they're* the proper authority?

Not enough letters, I'm tempted to use Kanji ;-) > > - Larry > > > _______________________________________________ > geda-user mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user > John Doty Noqsi Aerospace, Ltd. http://www.noqsi.com/ [email protected] _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
