Welcome from NM.     A photo of the beast would be cool.

Is it a tube type?

Yes it has tubes inside, 6 on one and 2 on the other. I don't know how long the bars are that hold these two boxes, they are missing.

Those beast used a 67V battery a 9V battery and maybe a 1.5 volt too.   Can't remember.   I'll look around.

The 67V can be done with Multi 9V as the current was nill.   Or you can build a voltage Pump set up and just use a few C or D cells.

Let me see what I can find on them.

The 67V batteries can still be had from Specialty Stores for some major money.

Oh thank you, I called Fisher in TX and they told me that they would not give me a wiring diagram. He told me that it took 45 volts to run part of it, 1.5 to run something else. He had a wiring diagram he was looking at but told me I had to get a hold of his boss.

Yep, 45 or 67 for the Plate voltage and 1.5 for the Heater or Cathode .

Some systems even used 90 volt for the B battery.

Do you see any markings like A and B battery?
