I'm not as concerned about authenticity as just being able to power my radio. Ultimatly it will be an indoor radio rather than portable anyway, set up on my display shelving/table lined up and functioning with the rest of my collection. Any leads on the battery source or a method otherwise, would be apreciated.

My Chinese military receiver uses that same voltage. 90VDC & 1.5VDC The D cells for the 1.5Fil and I used a stack of 10 rechargable NMHyDr 9V batteries from Habor Frieght in series making 90VDC and its rechargable. regards, Elmer
