In the early 1980s, at the peak of that sun spot cycle the 10 meter band was
jam packed every weekend. To find a place to have a QSO without interference I
would go up to 29.3 MHz and call CQ (that was before repeaters, satellites and
FM operations on 10 meters). I would spend hours actually hav

As Curt mentioned, you will want that lower 500 KHz. These rigs were made
before the Technician subband came about, when SSB activity was
Certainly the 28.0-28.5 portion...A LOT of the DX activity happens
around 28.400 SSB and this one extra xtal gives you all the CW + the
SSB portion for a majority of the activity. The FM activities are at
the top of the band.

All of my past experience has been with three-band (80, 40 and 20 meter)

B and C line equipment which have crystals for 28.5 MHz only. There are crystal

I was wondering if anyone has a 24.5 MHz crystal that they can spare for
a reasonable price. I need that to get the beginning of the 10 meter
band on the 2B I recently finished refurbing.
For some reason, it only comes with the one for 28.5 to 29 MHz.
(Probably because that's used on 15 meters als
