[Lowfer] CRYSTALS?

[Dale Rice]

Hi Ed and other **FERs,
I hope the reflector is working again.

I got a bunch of 13.560 crystals from Mouser and they check out pretty good
for the price. 64 cents ea. in lots of 100. I was able to swing them across
the whole HiFER band with a small trimmer cap and/or a 3.3 microhenry choke.
I'll be glad to drop one or two in an envelope for anyone on this reflector
who would like to build a HiFER or just play with them.
Send your address to me at rice@starband.net
