JJ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sounds like you're driving the crystal too hard and it's heating up. When something heats it expands and a larger crystal has a lower frequency. If you want best stability, reduce the drive until the circuit barely oscillates and make up the lower output with a stage of amplification. 73, Bill W6WRT |
