Default Search cell for any of 6 criteria

Have cells containing numerous text strings.
If the cell contains within its contents (which also has other
characters:)

.12 or .19 or TRS or PKI or .099 or PCI

Want to return TRUE, or FALSE.

Tried incarnations of this, but it doesn't behave.
=ISNUMBER(SEARCH("*.12*","*.19*","*TRS*","*PKI*"," *.099*","*PCI*",A1))

Thanks for ideas.

Pierre
