The only definite uses of the TCH that i have come across was for 
Torpedo Recovery Whaleboat in Washington state, and for Royal Army of 
the U.K.,

where it appears in a photo from the North Africa war.

 >>Collins TCS was indeed designed from the ground up to meet the Navy 
TCS specification and never saw commercial sales prior to the war.>.>

  It did share some construction and design features with the much more 
rare, and earlier, Collins 18M “Expedition” Transmitter Receiver 
combined set that Art introduced in 1939 - and that quickly became the 
TCH for early clandestine landing for the Navy and the Marines.
