[R-390] Crystals

[Craig Heaton]

Give International a Call! Toll free number, worth a few minutes.

Digging thru the paper stack: June 2008 I purchased a 200KC crystal for the calibrator R390/A, total price $115.23..............pricey but works. December 2013 I purchased a 7.294MHz crystal for the olde Junkston Viking "500"..........price $31.25...........as stated before; different package but same pin diameter & spacing....works just fine.

They have a long list of RX's & TX's that they will make a crystal. One of the first question is the capacitance loading. Don't sweat the number......it is in their files already and will just take a few minutes for them to look.

Good Luck,

Craig

Hi

If you call and ask for a 200 KHz crystal for an R-390 or a 100 KHz standard crystal for an HQ-XXX you will indeed get a “don’t do that anymore” type answer. 

It all depends on the crystal you are looking for The normal range AT’s are still being made.
