Hi,
I am working on a logic board for an Omni 6+ and the small crystal at pins 2 
and 3 of U6 is bad. 
This crystal looks like a small radial electrolytic capacitor.  U6, ds1285, is 
the real time clock package in the Omni 6 series.  The capacitor noted as Y2 in 
the Ten Tec manual has KDS2C stamped on it.
Apparently that crystal is no longer made but I might be able to find something 
that will work but will need the crystal specifications.
A google search mentioned 24 MHz at one site but I can't find data on it.

BTW:  In my Omni 6+ manual this crystal is drawn as being between but it's 
between pins 1 and 2.  I would appreciate feedback for others with this 
schematic.

So, anyone know anything about this little crystal or a source for them. I 
checked with Paul at Ten Tec and they are out but he is trying to locate some 
info.
Any help is appreciated ! ! ! 

I am still interested in any dead Omni 6 or Omni 6 logic boards that might be 
available for purchase. 

73,
