[MRCA] PRC-6/E battery specs?

[Bill Owens]

There was a nice-looking PRC-6/E on one of the tables in the Howell
Building at Redball, but I didn't ask the owner any questions about it
because I assumed it was so rare I'd never see another one. And now a
couple of weeks later I have one on my bench thanks to a lucky eBay
auction. Go figure!

The radio itself is in good shape except for a broken snap on one of the
two battery connectors; however, they don't seem to be for conventional 9v
dry cells. Does anyone - perhaps whoever it was that had the 6/E in Gilbert
- know what kind of battery is required?

Thanks,
Bill N2RKL

PS - also got a PRC-6/6 at Redball, it sat on someone's table until mid-day
Sunday so we took a closer look, which is when I saw the channel indicator
dial and snapped it up. Suddenly we're working on building a complete set,
I guess...
