[time-nuts] How quartz crystals are (were) fabricated

[Brooke Clarke]

Hi:

Speaking of old crystals, I found the crystal in the URC-4 survival radio is packaged in an axial lead machined metal can.
See Fig. 9 at:  http://www.prc68.com/I/URC4.html
or go straight to the photo at:

Does anyone know the package designation and if any other crystals are available in that package?

Have Fun,
