Hard telling what the engineers came up with.   :-/
 
 II> 445.300 uses a xtal marked 16.4925
 II> 443.925 xtal is marked 16.4416.
 RW> These are 27 times carrier, or in this case, reciever freq...

PLL in a rockbound radio???

I am currently a Tech Plus with a CSCE for General written... I might as

Let me know how much you want for it, with or without the brass plate.
