That online crystals seller that recently returned to business after the previous owner’s death, once had a list of manufacturers that person

had compiled. Sorry, memory glitch at moment causes me to forget the exact name of business and full name of founder; it will come to me

later. At one time i thought about  adding some maker names i had discovered on my own, but…oh well.

‘Crystal holders’ is a very varied and interesting subject, i think. I have a Bliley ‘variable crystal’,  a Bliley “pill” crystal in a clear plastic holder,

so you can see the insides, and how about those Japanese WW2 ‘domino’ packages, with no pins? And…and….and….

Say, does the BC-610 use these large FT-171 crystals, ones with banana pin plugs?

I “may” come up with some, on nonuseful frequencies, but could re emptied and quartz replaced.
I am not ready to mail out any yet; just asking at this point. Would be cost – free.
