Our club just purchased an ASK13 with a RST 542 installed. Unit is
working great and we just need to add appropriate TX and RX crystals
for 122.9 and 122.975. Jim at RST Engineering has been zero help.
When I call him he just rants that "Jan Crystals" has the specs and
wants me to only correspond via email with him. Of course he does
nothing via email except denegrade me for not asking the right
quesions of "Jans Crystals". "Jans" is more than willing to
fabricate the proper crystals but they need to know 1) Pf Load 2)
Ohms 3) Tolerance. Can anyone on this forum supply me with the
above info? I would greatly appreciate it as I have reached a
complete dead end with Mr. Jim of RST.

Is this radio still legal?

Crystals weren't cheap when I had a radio that needed them. I suggest
buying a much newer used radio, with all the frequencies, that has support.
