But Bill, if you do something that turns out too silly to mention and 
you keep quiet, that means I have to do it too!  I have my very own 
silly ideas!

One of the most interesting things about this list is hearing what other 
people are doing, building, restoring, and what all. Learning what 
doesn't work well is probably the most useful part of that.  I've been 
writing some further adventures with the VXO thing that I'll probably 
post today, but the short story is, doing it again from scratch this 
isn't where I'd start for a BFO that must tune a frequency range as 
large as ~0.1%.
