Re: 29MHz transverter PCs in shop
There are cheap TCXOs here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202891111938 - you don't need the trimming pot. Only disadvantage is you can't tune them spot on frequency, but that's not such a hardship given the Serit Tuner is also not all that accurate.
You can also save a lot of money buying cheap SMAs from Ebay or Aliexpress rather than the expensive ones from distributors. There are cheap mixers too that work OK. Intelligent shopping should halve the parts cost. Just don't skimp on the inductors and MMICs.
