Eric,

Jan Crystals has all the information to make the Drake crystals.  Call the
number on the web site and tell them what you frequency want.  Once I had
placed my orders I have corresponded with Sue Brick.  I included her e-mail
address below.  You may be able to place the order with her via e-mail but you
will have to call her with your credit card info (I would not include it in a
plain text e-mail message).

      "Sue Brick (JAN Crystals Sales)" 

Good luck and 73,

Ken
