    Description

    These are the hard-to-find crystals for 10 meters in the Yaesu FT-707 transceiver.  Many of these transceivers were converted to 11 meters for CB use and the 10A and 10B crystals were discarded.  Now they are impossible to find.  My solution was to have custom crystals made by QuartSLab in Great Britain.  They were familiar with the FT-707 requirements so the crystals meet the specifications.
    The crystals are offered as a pair for the 28.0 MHz (10A) and 28.5 MHz (10B) portions of the 10 Meter band.
    These are new crystals obtained from QuartSLab with the following specifications:
    42.48750 MHz, 20 pF, HC18u, wire leads
    42.98750 MHz, 20 pF, HC18u, wire leads
    Note that the crystals have wire leads.  Some FT-707 radios and other Yaesu radios use the same frequencies but may have plug-in sockets instead of soldered connections.  Check your radio before ordering.  The pertinent crystals are in the rear-left corner of the AF board NOT the seven crystal sockets at the front of the AF board.
    I am using a pair of these crystals in my own FT-707 and they work fine.   I did have to peak the oscillator transformer next to each crystal on the AF Board.
