Well yes, but just as Tanuki wasn't claiming that his 1MHz chip was anything more than something you could literally throw in your boot...this too? Alternatively, if you really are just getting started in the hobby, and on a really tight budget, then your 'cheap as chips' signal generator to fix your Bush/Echo/Hacker might be really quite handy.
All that said, I'm sure I bought some IC's way back in ~1990 (SN74LS629 ?) that were R-C VCO's running to ~30MHz?
