[Lowfer] KA9CFD grabber

[Michael Sapp]

Jay: I understand. My FT-847 has the wobble at QRSS60 as an IF radio. I've 
been meaning to put one of those Khune or DEMI xtal heaters on the master 
osc xtal and recal it.....someday I will get to it....

If it is the LF converter LO, it may be cheaper to use an OCXO then add an 
xtal heater.  I'm using an Isotemp 3.0 MHz OCXO found on ebay for $30 
shipped in my DBM LF converter.  With the TCXO option in my FT-817 worst 
case drift for the converter and receiver combination is .02 or .03 Hz /Hr 
with my 125000Btu furnance cycling on/off 5 feet away from the radios. The 
Jupiter GPS rx's have come way down in price as well for ther 1pps ref 
signal...all it takes is time and money.... (hi)   73, Mike wa3tts
