Two are totally dead, two are intermittent dead. The others aren't too far off frequency ,a few are very close. The deviation on these is is so wide it doesn't make much difference anyway.

Hi Hue,

Is the failure mode a big drift in frequency or an all-out failure to oscillate? Or both (or neither)?

Thanks in advance!

Those FT-241 LF xtals have about a 75% failure rate now. Are they merely to complete a BC-604 setup,

or for actual crystal use? If for use, you have a challenge ahead.
