The July/August issue of QEX is out, and it is full of theoretical and practical technical articles that you don't want to miss.

In this issue, John Post, KA5GSQ, describes a crystal controlled 145 MHz oscillator in "VHF Frequency Multiplication Using the SA602 IC." Wes Hayward, W7ZOI, returns to the pages of QEX with an article about "Oscillator Noise Evaluation with a Crystal Notch Filter." James Koehler, VE5FP, shares "Some Thoughts on Crystal Parameter Measurements" as he describes an automated system he built using a new DDS signal generator and microcontroller circuit to make the measurements and perform calculations.
