I do most of my home brewing at VHF/UHF so clean oscillators
are valued.

You want a CLEAN oscillator for UHF and Microwave, use the Butler from
Stephensen in QEX Nov/Dec 1999.Current limited and works every time. I use a
half dozen in the shop as per original, and a slightly modified 5 volt
version is in the N2PK VNA at 150 MHz. THAT'S a low noise oscillator!
