For sure some MN-26s (-C I think)ran off 12 volts. I had one installed in
my first car, an Austin Westminster. The control head was on the dash and
the radio in the trunk. I never did mount a loop on the roof though.

Pretty kewl, actually. Sadly, my father convinced me to leave it in the
Westminster when I got a new car in 1965.
