"chacun a son gout" it probably boils down to. The actual application
I was thinking of was for the SX18, which doesn't have a h/w UART,
so it's largely irrelevant what crystal you use - the timing is done in
s/w anyway. I'm replacing an F628 (for speed reasons) that has a
3.6864MHz crystal for comms

Just occured to me as I was shopping around for parts today as I
prepare to dip my toe into the SX pond

Nah, just waiting for the sound of my own screams to send me to sleep

(actually, been cycling across town - exercise before bed = not smart)
