Can you cut the DC suply to that module and tell us what happens?

hertz digit in the display. The waveform changes back and forth between a
sinusoidal and a rough sawtooth. I can mask this tone by turning up the Rf
gain but its still there. It is pronounce when the Rf gain is turned down.

first digit (hz digit) on the display, the wave form will from a sine to a
sawtooth and back.
