Its not for a radio. I want to minimize the cycle to cycle variations in
timing and it should be simple enough to make with 1 or 2 transitors. So
not looking for NASA spec stuff, just reliable so it starts every time.

Most reliable to start up you will find are the
crystal-oscillator-in-a-can. They also often spec some numbers with
respect to jitter.

The TCXO-in-a-can or VCTCXO-in-a-can made for telecom use are
particularly good bang-for-the-buck if you also want low jitter.
