[Boatanchors] Xtal Etch/Grind: Old Dog Learns New Tricks

[David Stinson]

Just wanted to say "thanks again" to all
of you who contributed your knowledge
about grinding and etching crystals.

My success rate for both grinding and
etching have greatly improved.  In fact,
I just successfully moved an FT-243
from 4280 KC up to 4340 KC for use
in a BC-611.  That's *60 KC.*  Not bad.
Etched it for the first 40 KC, then ground
it the rest of the way.  Fixed a dead 3465 KC
with a small crack by edge-grinding out
the crack, then ground it up to 3507.  Sweet.

Thanks again!  Our community is the best.
