My Omni VI has a temperature-controlled oven for crystal oscillator stability. 
I believe that on later models TT used a TCXO for better stability / shorter 
warm-up time. I know that I can leave my oven powered up if I want to avoid the 
warm-up delay, but I would prefer not to have to.

Does anyone know how easy it would be to upgrade to a TCXO? The cost of a 
return to TT doesn't warrant the improvement to me, but I wondered if it was 
something the competent ham could do at home?

73,
