I presume that virtually all watches use 32768 Hz ceramic resonators (except for those real garbage R-C ones that were around something like 5 years ago). Are there any watch resonator experts out there who could pontificate for me? -Bill -- -- ...!{decvax!linus,mit-eddie}!alliant!f Bill Freeman KE1G alliant!f@eddie.mit.edu PP-SMEL
