Crystals arrived, just picked them up on my way home from work.


I was thinking you had HC49U's, but these little HC49S crystals are something I've used only once in my life.  This may be a job for a Jfet oscillator.  I will mess around with them over the weekend and see what they (I) can do.  My understanding is that they are harder to pull the smaller the package, so maybe with the higher input impedance of the JFET, they might go further.  I hope.
