Worse comes to worse, you can use the base from a defunct octal tube for the plug.  I have done this numerous times over the years.

Next, get a cheap 12 volt filament transformer from Radio Shack (less than $10) and use it with your 12 volt DowKey relay.  Connect the primary to the DX-100 accessory socket and the secondary to the relay.  Again, I have done this numerous times over the years.

Does anyone have a Dow 120V relay for sale that can be used with the plate switch of a DX-100 through the back remote control socket to switch the antenna between receiver and transmitter and also mute the receiver on transmit? I could also use an octal male socket that fits the remote control socket on the back of the DX-100, I have a good 12V relay that would do the same thing if there were one more zero in the relay voltage,
