With shipping, the total for BFO pair from Klove came to EUR 230 or about USD $250. Each crystal is EUR 85.

Quartslab was a subcontractor for Klove that manufactured crystals on their behalf.? Quartslab suspended orders about two years ago.?

Klove is still operating and manufacturing crystals in HC-6/U holders.? Last year, I purchased a pair of BFO crystals for a Hallicrafters Cyclone III.? Klove¡¯s contact information appears below.? Be prepared for price shock.

As I recall, neither Steve Johnston at AF4K nor Bomar could supply typical BFO frequency crystals in a HC-6/U case.? I made the purchase from Klove primarily because I didn¡¯t want to diddle with any other option.
