Yes, it certainly MAY generate interest!! And I might also be able to contribute to the effort of battery repros. I have a Philco PT-89 with a Burgess 2TXX40 (dated June 1948) inside it. This old artifact is in good enough shape,as far as the paper cover goes, to repro.
It's voltages are 1.5V+60V B. There would be enough space to series
7 9-volt cells for B-batt and, say parallell two AA cells for A-batt inside it's striped paper cover.
I don't know how popular this battery is. How much of a market is in our field of interest to warrant such an undertaking??
What say Ye All??? Let the Phorum know!!!! Icon_confused: Icon_confused:

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
