Because color TVs were so common between the 1960s and 2000s, economies of scale have driven down the cost of colorburst crystals, which often find uses in various other applications, such as amateur radio (3.579 MHz is common QRP calling frequency at 80m band).

This mission involved the launch of the Magellan probe, a Venus-exploration spacecraft and experiments involving life sciences and crystals.
Material from the Siglio XX Mine, Llallagua, Bolivia, is an unusual pale yellow color, rather than the more common blue or green, forming crusts on quartz and cassiterite, and enclosing crude octahedral jeanbandyite crystals with orange colored shells of plumbogummite.
The size distribution of the crystals can be also altered, e.g. by Ostwald ripening.
The only source for these crystals was the NZPO (New Zealand Post Office), and delivery times were often measured in months, which was an ongoing problem for Robinson in his ability to supply his radios.
