[Yaesu] part needed

[mrmuzic at optonline.net]

CRYSTALS in general are manufactured with a "C" factor  which varies from rig to rig. When you order crystals this is EXTREMELY important or you will never be able to tune the crystal for your application. I would NOT be surprised if Yaesu does NOT tell you what this is so that you are forced to buy crystals from them. You can measure this though if the old crystal is still good.
