40-88 battery
#4

Thanks Terry, why someone wants to hook up all those batteries, well, one set plus something to mount them in, and if your going to use it, it gets a little pricey. The A/C power supply works very nicely and the radio shown, plays very nicely, with no hum at all. Wish I would have saved the graphics, it came from some U.K. website. Seems it has been closed down.
I'm certain someone saved this stuff. All parts I purchased from Mouser. The aluminum box was within fractions of an inch of the original battery. Had to do a little work on the computer to size properly. Making the female connector was easy. A piece of brass tubing and a small piece of thin plywood. An enjoyable project that worked well.
