Hue it uses 3 fist-sized 45V batteries & 1, 2, or 3
same-shaped 1.5v plug-in batteries.  Then there's 2 7.5V
C batteries.

TX seems to have 2 3A4s in paralledl & think maybe 5W in.
AM modulator another two 3A4s.

12' telescoping antenna has load-coil at bottom

And yesterday I forgot to mention the tube placement
diagram calls it "Packset 8907"

   Tnx

      Marty
