        No, the actual frequency is the actual minus the i-f (10.8 for
        Bearcat, 10.7 for all other scanners.

        How is the crystal mounted - solder-in, socket? Which size? I
        don't know the specific type names.

        Primarily for transmit crystals. How much can the crystal
        frequency vary over a given range of temperature.


 > load capacity: is that like power capacity? what's normal?

        A crystal operates in parallel or series with a small capacitor
        (load capacitance).


        Now, after all that; get in touch with a company that deals with
        scanners or scanner crystals. They will have all the above info
        on file for the various models.  Look for names in a Scanner
        Guide or communications magazine.
