A while ago, somebody provided a URL discussing vibration and crystals. The context was radar on helicopters. The vibration smeared out the signal enough to cause problems. The fix was accelerometers and a system to tweak the voltage on the crystal to compensate. It was a fun read. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
