How much does one cost for just the parts? I have the oven and it is
actually great...within about 20 Hz or so after being carefully set several
times...varies that much day to month. Is the TCXO much better...how much
better than that? Also I wonder if the band oscillators are going to vary
that much anyway...negating any better stability from the TCXO. The BFO
oscillators are fairly stable. I have them adjusted to within a couple of
hertz and they stay where I put them.
