Yes your eyes are not deceiving you. Some have used aa or c batteries in series to create the hv but it does take a BUNCH of them and a few extra for the -3 and -7v. Using the 9v batteries snapped together on the set will have a limited life (short) do to the current requirements. The 19 tube in the audio output is hungry current but can deliver alot of audio for a farm set ( abt 2w). Most fs are abt .5w or less. https://frank.pocnet.net/sheets/021/1/19.pdf

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
