[TenTec] Paragon 585 Pass Band Tuning VXCO Replacement Crystal Available

[Brian Holmes]

The VXCO on my pass band tuning board shifted 12-15 kHz low in frequency which was outside of the center frequency of all of the filters.  As a result, only the 6 kHz  (i.e. no filter) BW position worked.  

Since no spares of that part were available and since I was concerned about just putting a spare board in only to perhaps have the same issue, I ordered a new crystal from Bomar. Two crystals was the same price as one so, if anyone needs a crystal, let me know.  All charge half of what I paid plus shipping. 

I put the rock in and it bang on. Very happy with it. 

Thanks,

Brian
