     Not sure of which equipment but the crystals below 500 KHZ could be 
used for alternate injection for Lower Side Band LSB on the PRC-47. I 
usually use a higher frequency crystal (they are cheaper) with a divide 
by 16 IC circuit to produce an output below 500 KHz.  The dial 
calibration will be off but the LSB  audio will be good without 
effecting the output. Will post that info soon I hope.
