[ARC5] ARC5 Octal Crystals

[Brian Carling]

Many thanks for the advice. I have plenty available if anybody needs one. They can be retrofit with sleeves to allow insertion into that FT241 socket.

Best regards - Bry Carling

The holder, however, is a sealed plastic affair.  The body of the holder is a wider that an FT-243. The height appears the same.  I find that a 200kHz crystal calibration point is much easier to use than 100kHz, especially on general coverage receivers.
