Re: [AMRadio] Crystals Rock ! ( sorry for the pun )
Bruce & Co... If you overshoot you can usually bring them back down 5 to 10 kHz with a felt tip marker. If you go too far with the ink, than a solvent will take some off. 73 - Bry, AF4K From: w7aac > Mark Foltarz wrote: > > 220 grit wet sand paper. > > > > worked like a champ. > > > > Mark > > > > > > > > > We used to use Ajax cleanser on a glass plate with water.

[AMRadio] Crystals Rock ! ( sorry for the pun )
Interesting Mark... I have a number of quartz crystal blanks available for the large FT171B crystals used in the BC610. Some I have marked - some random. They are almost all in the 3500 - 4000 kHz range if anyone wants to try some pencilling, penning or grinding with these. Drop me an e-mail of fthe list and I can supply information. 73 - Bry, AF4K From: Mark Foltarz > Did my first crystal grind for the BC 610 last night. > Got darn close. > Started with a 3570 and ground up to 3655.3 . > Overshot by 300 hz. > Might try to "pencil it down." > > de KA4JVY > Mark -~ø¤º°º¤ø~-"ßrÿ in FLÕRÎÐÁ"-~ø¤º°º¤ø~- __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/amradio@mailman.qth.net/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to amradio-requ...@mailman.qth.net with the word unsubscribe in the message body.

Did my first crystal grind for the BC 610 last night. Got darn close. Started with a 3570 and ground up to 3655.3 . Overshot by 300 hz.
