Is this New Crystal? Does your console speak on its own?

[Mehridian Sanders]

I have been looking at low cost upgrades for the TI-99/4a, and I cycle through Mainbytes page at least once a day. I came across an upgrade that looked relatively simple to implement and useful for about any application that could handle the increased clock speed. Mainbyte's Console Speedup. This is something that could be completed in an hour or less, perfect for a small project during the week, when juggling 3 kids with homework and various other issues. Since the frequency is a must at 14.31818. 1 google search later led me to this :

https://www.ebay.com/itm/10-X-14-31818-MHz-14-31818MHz-Crystal-Oscillator-HC-49U-NEW-KDS-Japan-/371234890138

Since the picture of these was taken 7 years ago, I am leary of making a purchase. Call me a Skeptic-Negative-Norman, I just like more info than I could possibly need.

 

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Here's one in Arizona. Thee are a LOT of crystals with this frequency on eBay--and in just about every type of standard case.

I don't know why I always go to solid copper for my lines... Always a pain to wrap.
