I would just call them up and order the crystals.  They have an 
extensive database and should already know what sort of capacity they 
need to see and any other pertinent data.  I have used them for years 
for crystals for long forgotten boatanchor equipment with only one goof 
up.  That I fixed by putting old octal tube pins over the crystal pins. 
  For something new, like an Omni VI, I do not think you will have any 
problems at all.  They are fast and reasonable in cost.
