Since I can't let Pete's comment(s) sit, I'll make one last public

concerned. The trick is going to be to do this without flame. So here
goes:
The way to avoid that, is to not put it 'out there' in the first place,
or have someone else do it for you.
and it just seems like a shame
to find a NEW one and chop it up. Now that I think about it, if I WAS
flush, I'd try to buy this myself in a heartbeat. I think it is that
significant.
What chop-up? different xtals, and a slight re-tune and it's moved up
2Mc. It's a 'mod' (and, that's a stretch) that's easily undone.
