I have colleagues working on Microwave Oscillators that reported some
difficulties working with PSpice, mainly when the Q factor of the
resonant element is too high (some thousands).

However, there is a kind of simulation software designed to achieve,
quickly and precisely, the forced response of nonlinear oscillator
circuits, using techniques known as "Harmonic Balance Techniques" that
can handle oscillators, power amplifiers, frequency multipliers, etc.

I've worked in Microwave frequency doublers using a software called
"Microwave HARMONICA" with very good results but only once in a Master
Degree work. People from Microwaves Group at my University are using
also a system from HP known as "Microwave Design System-MDS". I think
that the company that sells TOUCHSTONE has also some software for that
kinf of problems.

Some months ago, in IEEE SPECTRUM, appeared a broad description of
many CAD Software for Electronics with the companys address given.

BY THE WAY I HAVE NOT COMERCIAL RELATIONS WITH ANY OF THE COMPANIES
THAT SELL THE ABOVE MENTIONED SOFTWARE.

	Hope this helps...
