Frank,

Yes the standard TXCO is good enough for JT65. It is also good enough for WSPR which is even more picky.

Last test I did of drift was at 24.9 MHz. The K3 (standard TXCO) drifted 3Hz/hr (after a 6 hours of warmup) relative to my Rb standard.
Expect more if you just turn K3 on and use.

Hi Gang,

After hoarding away my lunch money from the XYL, I'm about ready to buy a
K3 so my KX3 has some Elecraft company.

I like to do JT65, so my question is that should I go for the high
precision TXCO or is the default adequate?

Oh, and if I take the hour drive to Aptos with a fist-full of cash, will
they sell me a K3 from there (my XYL looks at the credit card reciepts) heh
:)
