Probably intended for a 67 V B battery.


'Ideal' B+ voltage is determined by the specific tube installed.


I built a two tube radio about 20 years ago using 01A tubes. I put 5
regular 9 volt batteries in series to give 45 volts for the radio.
Worked fine.

You know you can plug the 9 volt batteries + to - using the connectors
on top?

Not a bad idea. They'd last ages too.
