[Lowfer] CRYSTALS?

[Dale Rice]

Ed,
I had good luck with Ken's electronics. I bought most of his 13 MHz
fundamental XTALS, but he may still have some. He has plenty of 27 Mhz stuff
if you don't mind dividing.
 I have also bought cheap CB walkies and RC stuff on eBay to get the XTALS.
You can warp a channel 13 XTAL all over the place with some inductance.
 I just placed an order with Mouser for a quantity of Crystek 13.560 XTALS
(Mouser #549-01 6877). I am going to see what kind of spread they have. They
are only $1.28 in lots of one! Go to their page and search for 13.560 to see
what they have in stock.
