The terminal maker was a different TEC, namely
the Transistor Electronics Company. Besides
terminals, they made switches and indicators.
I recall seeing early advertisements for their
keyswitches, which is possibly how they got into
the terminal business.
Might "TEC" also stand for "Texas Engineering Center", a Dallas
division of Raytheon? I know that internally, it's referred to as
"TEC". It could be that the board layout and design was done there.
Just guessin'...
