I've been experimenting with a 100 KHz crystal oscillator with some success. I know these are really not crystals but are tuning fork oscillators at these frequencies.
Then you "know" wrong -------100kHz crystals are as common as dirt!
I am using a Mouser part number 815-ABS25-100KT part. I can get the part to oscillate by adjusting the trim cap after powering the circuit up. I can bring it on frequency to exactly 100.000 KHz. However, if I power the circuit down and back up, the oscillator will not start without adjusting the trimmer until it starts. I can then adjust it back on frequency.
Circuit I am using is attached. Is there a better circuit that I can use?
Edit:-OK, I can see where you are coming from with the "tuning forks" terminology.
Yes, low frequency crystals are often cut into tuning fork form, but they are
not tuning forks, & are several orders of magnitude more accurate & stable than real versions of those devices.
In any case, 100kHz crystals are not among this group, & are cut like other higher frequency crystals are.
As I pointed out, they are very common, as are stable oscillator circuits which use them---- Google for "100kHz calibrator" circuits.
