Sorry this is a stupid question, I know it will not work, but yet I need to confirm the answer.

if I have 2 crystals, 10Mhz and 20Mhz.
What If connect them in
1. series
2. Parallel

what will happend to the output freq?
or it will not work at all?

Thank you,
Victor
 
It wouldn't work, crystal drivers wouldn't be able to handle the drastically changed load. You might be able to get it to work as 10/20mhz are harmonics of each other, but there would be no point in doing it.
