[Boatanchors] Question about a Heathkit crystal Frequency

I'm not a Heathkit person, but I suspect that if the IF is 3395, the oscillator crystals for SSB would be 1.4 kHz above and below 3395 assuming a 2.8 kHz bandwidth filter, i.e., 3396.4 and 3393.6 kHz.

All the SB-line radios had a 3395 KHz IF, not 3995 KHz.  So 3395.6 would be correct.  Unless there’s a band crystal in this range (?? beats me) ?
