Okay, I've now tweaked the osc. to get as near to 50% as possible.
Alas, still no sign of any 5th present in the multiplier's output.
Here's a shot of the (fundamental) output from the inverters. I can't
see any real problem with why it shouldn't be good for a reasonable
comb of harmonics, but our experts may know better. BTW, settings were
2V/div. and 0.1uS/div.

That waveform *has* bunches of 5th harmonic. All you need is a
properly functioning bandpass filter to pluck it out.


You must have bloody good eyesight, John! :-)
BTW, can you recommend a sub nS Schmitt inverter that's easily
obtainable?
