Yes, me. If you only need one it's free for postage. I have those small
brown phenolic FT-243 crystal sockets.

Does any one know of a source for sockets for the FT 243 crystals?

I should have been a bit more specific. I am trying to make a crystal
adapter for a WW II Japanese type 94-5 transmitter. The actual crystal
is 1 1/4 " wide, 1 1/4 " deep and about
1/2 " high. It has metal shims on the side that make contact with the
circuit. I am thinking of a plastic plug with a crystal socket mounted
on the front. So I need something about 1 inch by 1/2 inch.
