[hpsdr] Suggesting VCTCXO oscillator

Hi!
Looking at the schematic of Excalibur, I found out that the crystal
oscillator is a CXOH20.
http://openhpsdr.org/wiki/index.php?title=EXCALIBUR
CXOH20 37 euro +-1ppm 20mA 5V SSB phase noise -125dBc/Hz at 1kHz offset:

Have somebody thought about a voltage trimmed VCTCXO instead? - e.g.
VC-TXO-23SM-100-B:
VC-TXO-23SM-100-B 8 euro +-2,5ppm 1,5mA 3V SSB phase
noise -130dBc/Hz at 1kHz offset:

Then a potentiometer - or a slow DA-converter can be used to trim it,
instead of a mechanical solution.
