Before I found the right type of crystal for my CT-100, I tried one that I salvaged from the carcass of a junky 1980s TV. It made a sizzling sound and died. I don't know what will work in this set.
Speaking of crystals, my CTC-7 has a funny one. The manuals show the can type, but this looks like a chubby glass mini tube with a saucer inside. Perhaps a replacement. New to me, anyhow.
