Chuck, If you are asking or concerned  about the operating frequency of a
XG50 signal source- The absolute frequency is not important. It is meant to
be a relatively stable frequency source, not a particularly accurate one.
When used to due the temperature compensation routine on a KX3, it is only
important that it not drift significantly in frequency during the procedure.


In this application, the actual operating frequency is not important, but
stability is.
