[time-nuts] Are there SC-crystals out there in the wild that are not Overtone?

Yes, but how many of us can build a time-nuts quality oscillator?
I'm still lacking that paper/book that teaches me how to build
a high stability oscillator.

I have a couple of 5MHz 3rd OT SC cut crystals in HC-37 case sitting
in a box, waiting to be used as some oscillator, I just lack the knowledge
to make good use of them.
