[K3PZN-List] Looking for Xtal

[Curt Milton]

Andy, its unusual for xtals to wear out!  i would
check it somehow either in the rig or in a separate
oscillator circuit.  is it possible there is something
in the oscillator circuit out of wack and its just not
oscillating?  any coils or caps in there that are
adjustable?  just suspicious that its not the rock.
