Hi Welcome to eBay …..
I don’t believe those are crystals at all. If you take a look at the markings on the parts they are labeled “80 K cps”. In other words they are 80 KHz not 80M devices. Looking at the gap, if there is a crystal in there it’s not obvious that it’s big enough for 80 KHz. My guess is that they are tank tuning caps for an mechanical MOPA style transmitter. The size and construction are about right for that sort of thing. Swap one in and the transmit frequency changes. Number 7 for 80 KHz. Number 8 for 85 KHz. Number 7 for 75 KHz. Just a guess … Bob > On Nov 26, 2016, at 7:40 AM, Adrian Godwin <artgod...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I bought some old crystals on ebay : > > http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/122225114483 > > Is anyone familiar with this style ?
