[TenTec] OMNI VI+ found 12m

[Don Rasmussen]

Ten Tec had the crystal for 12m, what a blessing, but it turns out I did not need it, the 12m crystal is located closest to one of the board mounting holes. The side of the crystal closest to the hole had broken at the solder connection. It works FB now after resoldering it.

Thanks Rick, I can probably cheat and set an external receiver w/probe at the crystal frequency, probably the next course of action.

Don,

This is another case where a scope would be a real blessing.
You would see in a few seconds whether or not the oscillator were
functioning.
