This ADF REF input   needs a  10MHz  TTL 3V3 blok fomat  to drive ? Deja vue with the 23cm XTVR  of 30 years ago: The 96MHz X-tal  does not want to work at its designed frequency and is drifting in kHz range at 1152MHz. Since that project I avoid using single xtals since never ever they will work at the correct  frequency.
