I shall be using one this week with my CW keyer to send slow CW (QRSS) on 1.2kHz and 8.97kHz. For very slow CW I'll need a much more stable oscillator probably a crystal and digital divider, although many on the "Dreamers Band" are using a DDS source.

Twin tee oscillator
A twin-tee audio oscillator is a very useful item to have around the shack. Looking around the net for suitable circuit values yesterday I came across this page by G0XAN http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ g0xan/twin-t.htm

Howdy,
I see the twin-t oscillator information on the G0XAN site is incomplete.
In the drawing of the twin-t oscillator embedded in your post, the following sets the frequency:
R1=R2=Rx
R3=Rx/K
C2=C3=Cx
C1=KCx
F=1/(2*PI*Rx*Cx)
K>2

Here is a better (IMHO) albeit more complex circuit:

Impressive with thanks!
