[Elecraft] Re: K1 no output on 20 - KFL1-4 problem?

[Greg]

Mike,

I did the same test for oscillation from each crystal some time back 
but double checked them again after reading
your posting. Same results as I had in the past. I hear a faint 
signal for the 20 meter crystal. I'd say maybe about
1/4 the audio heard from this 20 meter crystal compared to the other 
three crystals. The 15, 30, and 40 meter crystals
all oscillated at the same audio level while listening with another rig.
40m 15003.0 mhz
30m 18097.0  mhz
20m 21997.0 mhz (faint signal heard)
15m 28996.0 mhz

I wonder if Elecraft had a bad bunch of 22.000 mhz crystals delivered to them?
Guess I'll contact Elecraft and obtain another 22.000 mhz crystal for 
the 20 meter band. Let me know if you come up with something
different.

72,
