I have an early ZD Mk0 model and am looking for 11m crystals for it. I believe they use Type: HC49 crystals. They look very similar to the HC25 crystal, but with thin wire legs instead of pins. And I need the 41.4875(27.0-27.5) and 41.9875Mhz(27.5-28.0). Anyone know where to get any?
 

yaesu 41.4875 looking for other one may still have them
Decoder, are they HC49 with thin wire legs? Not pins like 101E crystals? That would be awesome. I did buy the correct frequency crystals on E-bay, but they had very thick pins that I had to drill holes for, made a mess and lifted traces. Got a replacement board in the mail now, but don't want to mess that up too. :)

They are on the PB-1965 board
 
no there pins, just make a little switching board with a transistor and you can switch back between 11 and 10 meters. that's the way we use to do it back in the good old days or just wrap thin wires around the pin and put it in. spring out of pens make good crystal sockets.
 
I usually go through Jan Crystals. Usually about a 2 week turnaround for them to cut them to spec, but they can get you what you want, and they will be brand new.

Bummer! Didn't know that, so sorry for the bad info. There's a place in Oklahoma City that does very good work, too. I think my crystals ran around 20 a piece.

Yes, ICM is OK City, but wouldn't you know it, they close at 2:30 PM on Friday. LOL I called like 5 minutes too late. :) I'll call Monday

And to make matters worse, my new board is here from J. A. Pan and the mail weasel brought it, couldn't find me for a signature and took it back. The Dork.
 
OK, I called ICM today, talked to Sarah, ordered my two crystals. You can order 1 or dozens. Mine are $25 each, brand new, and $7 to ship. Takes about 3 weeks. :LOL:
