Re: Crystals


 

Hi Chuck,
Yes, the HC-49S crystals can have excellent Q, but their Lm to Lc ratio is very high which makes them impractical for use in wider filters (SSB, etc).
I have some measurements somewhere. If you'd like, I can dig them up and post them.

One more thingy.

I forgot to mention.? If you will note, the K7QO paper had one HC-49S
(the short
crystal).? In a current shopping spree I find that the HC-49U has
practically
disappeared from the face of the earth.

But that may be a good thing.? Note:? the HC-49S crystal in the paper
had the
highest Q rating!!

Figure 1 in Chucks paper shows a HC-49U carefully taken apart. Try to find
a photograph of a HC-49S.? I dare you.? Some take one apart and do a high
resolution photo.? Please.
