Hello--

I've got a TS-520S whose LSB function keeps quitting. Long story
short---I've traced the trouble to the carrier board, and have
determined that the problem is a 3393.5 kHz crystal that's gotten lazy.
Sometimes it will oscillate, other times it won't. There are no other
problems with the circuit that I can find, and other crystals installed
in its place oscillate just fine.

I'm wondering if someone has got a junked TS-520 who'd be interested in
selling either the crystal, or the whole carrier board ("Carrier Unit"
X50-0009-01)

I realize that I can arrange to have a crystal made, and I may yet go
that route, but I figured I'd see what someone might have in a coffee
can on a shelf someplace.

I can be reached at hpf (atsign) gainbroadband (dot) com

Thanks in advance, and 73.
