[ARC5] Odd Freq FT-243 you looking for

[hwhall@aol.com]

 The answer depends on the use the crystal was designed for, but some were receiver crystals with the offset you cited. Some crystals are "channel" crystals & you have to do a little research (or testing) to find out what the crystal actually oscillates at. Many channel ones are also marked with the actual crystal freq & some are marked for their application; e.g., "BC-669 Trans" etc.
Some operated at fundamental. Some at harmonics. It's a mixed bag.

  Are the frequencies on the crystals channel or crystal frequency?
 If channel frequency and receive crystal, the crystal frequency could be a by offset by an if frequency and a multiple of the crystal frequency.

Thanks again to all that responded to my post yesterday for info on crystal mfr's during the war.  As I slowly go througj the pile of xtals here...I'll be happy to keep a look out for any non ham band freqs you may want. So far out of 350 xtals looked at , only two 40 mtr xtals were found.  So far the highest freg found is around 8mcs. The bulk so far is around 5 -6.9 mcs and others in the 4mc range. 
  Also have quite a few DC 34 xtals as used on the BC669 , these all in the 4 mc range. 
  Let me know what you your looking for.
