At one time I had them make crystals for a number of Motorola radio's HT
that was in use in Florida. This was in June or July. Had the Motorola
factory have to tune them a number of time the first 90 day. Then they stay
ok till we had them in Gatlinburg, Tn for a late December show. Most of
the radio's were so far off freg we could not use them. Last time I used
ICM. Also them main reason for the fax is no one can not say what was not
ordered or freg . We all have a hard copy, is a done deal as they say.
