Junk crystals are good thermometers.  Ballpark is 1 ppm/degree-C

So does this mean I can epoxy a sandstone power resister to a junk
crystal and keep the frequency exactly perfect by varying the power in
the resister?


Yes.. but you have to hold temperature to 0.001 degree, which is somewhat challenging<grin>

A lot of SAW devices have tempcos that look like a parabola that fits in a box that is 100 degrees wide, and 100 ppm high.
