Years ago when most ham radios in the FM 2 meter band used crystals, they did not do very well .? They would often drift off frequency and after a while drift too much to be pulled back on frequency.
We stayed away from them in this area.

"That was YEARS ago" (my emphasis).
See Kevin's message: Bomar is NG now.
