Joe, 

That's right. Just run the B+ into pin 3 too.

It's a Cannon connector and they may still make it but new stock is likely to 
be very expensive.   For NOS try:

William Perry Company
92 Beechwood Rd. (Rear)
Louisville, KY 40207
502-893-8724
(No e-mail address.)   

Just tell him you want a mating female connector for a TCS receiver.

Nice little receiver although the IF bandwidth is a bit broad for today's 
bands.

Good luck.
