Is that like the question: what is more accurate...a clock that is stopped
or one minute fast?
Way back when, I had an SCR-522 2 meter transmitter that had a bit too much
crystal drive. So much in fact, that the crystal would heat up excessively.
Of course it would be drifting to beat the band as its temperature was
climbing. Nothing like wiping out 5 or 6 channels during a CQ on 2 meter
AM.
And that was with 30kc channel spacing. Today it would be twice as many
channels.
When the solder melted on the crystal can I had to switch to FT-243's. At
least they could take the drive.
