Hi, I'm currently playing around with crystal oscillators (specifically a homebrew OCXO) and came across the Wenzel low-distortion crystal oscillator: http://www.wenzel.com/pdffiles1/pdfs/xtalosc.pdf
This uses an inductor (L1) to trim the crystal frequency, with the note that a varactor/varicap could be added to allow the frequency to be trimmed electronically. Has anyone built one of these oscillators? How would you pick a value for L1? I've been reading up on other crystal oscillator types (Colpitts, Clapp,...) and have yet to find anything which uses this style of frequency trimming. Where would I add the varactor if I wanted to add EFC? Across C3? Thanks. -- Phil.
