And there were 'farm' sets that worked off of 32 volts, some had vibrator
power supplies but some used 32 VDC as the B+. The 32 volt systems used
outlets just like 110vac outlets.

Could well have been 32V --- just assumed 6V based on the batteries Dad
had in the cellar. They were wired direct to the radio, not through any
outlets. Radio was the only "electric" thing in the house.

You are getting better Hans. That was a good spin. Play up the
"unknown voltage" thing when you retell the story at the
Legion Hall.
