[time-nuts] Frequency of LC Tank.

[paul swed]

I would have done exactly what Hal said. I do this all the time when trying
to figure out the LC tanks operating frequency. An example keeping this
time nuts friendly, the d-psk-r circuits at 60 Khz. I am lucky in that I
can add or subtract C on the stuff I work on.
