Mike,

While the RF Probe will not solve the problem, it will detect whether 
the crystal is the problem or not.  At the time of the initial 
suggestions, he did not have access to another receiver, and under those 
conditions, the use of an RF Probe is the easiest way to make some 
determinations about the source of the problem.

You are correct, if another receiver that can tune to 22 MHz is 
available, that is the quickest way to check whether the crystal 
oscillator is operating.
