Was a good answer...
If it helps any, the crystal socket on a beastly 610 tuning unit perfectly
fits a double banana plug. Mount a standard FT-243 holder on a double plug
and voila, instant adapatron.
Also, a recent issue of Electric Radio featured a simple cure for the FM
hum that is common to the BC-610 VFO.

If you find the adapter, please let me know. I have two of the large
crystals, but that's it.
I don't have a BC-610, mine is the HT4-B, but they are, I think, very similar.
I've used mine on 160 & 75 with the VFO that is built into each tuning
unit. It drifts a lot for about the first hour, and then settles down to
quite a tiny amount, relative to AM bandwidth.
So, the lack of crystals should not keep you from firing-up the "Beastly 610"!
