Trying a comparison between a 7.3728Mhz quartz crystal and an Epsom 6Mhz oscillator.
The yellow is the double inverted 6Mhz (using a 74LS04), the blue is the raw 6Mhz out and the green the quartz crystal hooked up to two inverters as per Grant Searle's Z80 minimal chip count computer circuit.
The crystal doesn't look right...?
