[ARC5] Programmable Oscillators

[Bill Fuqua]

   Here is some data from a guy that has made some measurements.
That is not to say that yours may be different since the actual programming
frequency and other factors determine the actual results. It is still worth 
while trying
one in your application and see how it works out. Mine was to for qrp tx 
and rx.
Tx is less of a problem as long as the spurious responses are low enough.
Rx applications may be different. In my case up to 7 MHz seemed to be OK.
I was also looking into using one for a plasma geneator at 13.56 Mhz.
