Ronnie have you ever looked into some of the old SSB transceiver power 
supplies?  Old supplies from Heath, SWAN etc. seem to be reasonably 
priced and should be able to provide the voltage and current 
requirements to get a 90801 going.  You don't need a pretty one just 
functional.  It could be repackaged behind a rack front to match in with 
  the Millen stuff.  An old SWAN 117XC aupply was designed to run two 
sweep tubes at 700 watts input (for the Swan 700CX), plus all the other 
tubes in the rig and filaments.  One of those should fly easily on a 
90801 transmitter.  They may not be period supplies, but when waiting 
for the right one to show up they will surve you well.
