[Yaesu] part needed

[Peter - LC0TC]

Well you've achieved (stumbled on) a cure so all is well.
Did you make a note of the different resonance points? This can help
indicate the different capacity specs.
e.g. crystals have been spec'd for 30pF, or 20pF, or 12pF, at different
times and for different equipments.

Crystals that get "tired" can play up again so the info might help you then.

Yes, the original crystals resonated significantly different than the new
ones I had tried.
I was able to get the new ones correct by adding 10pf  capacity but this
messed up the range of the padder corrector capacitor.
In the end, after swapping parts between the two oscilllators, to no avail,
and re-soldering all the connections in the circuit even though they
appeared fine, I tried the original crystal and now it is perfect.
Must have been a connection?
Go figure.
Paul
