[Milsurplus] PRC-6 Transistorized power supply ?

I was looking at a Meshna catalog I have had since 1986 and it's quite fun. It's the size of a comic book of the time,
68 pages, and as you'd expect, almost entirely computer and home electronics production run closeouts, service
returns, and all kinds of factory-new leftovers and such, with a few mil-surplus electronics and optics goodies, including
two pages of various night vision equipment. ( BTW, verbatim: "PLEASE NOTE: Due to the nature of these see-in-the-dark
devices and lasers, and people only having a one time use for them, we CANNOT accept returns for refund, credit, or
exchange". )
I see the catalog shows a PRC-6, "visually good, untested", $25 plus $5 for the antenna. Also the text sez "We include
sheet on building transistorized power supply, fits inside case". My question is, I don't recall seeing this power
supply project published in any of the ham mags around this time. Maybe in a MARS bulletin, I'm wondering ? Do you
recall seeing this article, around this time ? I suppose I'd like to add the schematic to my collection, just for sake of
completeness. If it's different from the online articles about PRC-6 inverter. I am especially interested in what the Meshna
article used for a transformer. I did read Dennis Starks' and K4CHE's articles. I don't actually have any interest in owning a PRC-6.
Do not send me links to assembled power supplies that I can buy.
