if crystals are not to be messed with why are they so easy to get to ? hmmmm
They are easy to get to because... Futaba doesn't want to make one case for the US and another for Europe and another for somewhere else. In Europe the end user can change the crystal legally. They are also in the 35 mhz band and have a bit wider percentage frequency seperation.

Technically... its even illegal to replace the original crystal in the TX with one for the SAME frequency here inthe US. (unless you are licenced for it...)
Could this also be for the hams who (If I understand correctly) are allowed to change their tx crystal?
