Jim,

The TCS uses Cannon GK-9, GK-12 and SK-c16 connectors.  The BC-223, BC-1306 
and RT-77/GRC-9 use 8, 9 and 9 pin connectors out of the threaded barrel 
variant of the large banana pin type connectors.  Inserts for the former are the 
same as in the push-button variant used on the BC-191 and BC-375 and their 
dynamotors.

Crystals don't have a wattage rating, at least not one related to a 
transmitter's power output.  They do have a max current rating.  But almost anything 
you might have made before about 1960 will work OK in the TCS, as the grid 
current drawn by the 12A6 oscillator is low.
