[Boatanchors] Periodic search for a 1770 kHZ Peterson Crystal

Doug Hensley w5jv at hotmail.com
Sat Aug 30 11:30:07 EDT 2014


Will pay any reasonable price for a Peterson, FT-243, 1770 kHZ crystal.  Thisis used in the IF filter of an old boat-anchor I have.  They were often pulledand pocketed by idiots thinking they would be useful for 160m operation.  Sonow the receivers suffer on without them.

TIA,
Doug W5JV/NNN0BXX
