It's been said here that the dots are a way to match tolerances at the
factory. I have two radios and two RXs...the dot sequences on both match
(for their respective channels, of course). For example, my CH18 equipment
has the left-most dot of the three darkened on both crystals. I need
another CH18 crystal for the second RX, so I'm going to try to match that.
Maybe a local shop has them in stock and I can pick through them. Failing
that, I'll try talking to Horizon and see what they say.
