You're not going to believe it, but we used dry cell batteries! Remember,
these were/are not rechargeable, so we had to buy new ones when they ran
down. When I started, I had a single tube receiver with 3 volt filament
supply and 45 volt plate supply. The transmitter had a six volt filament
supply and 135 volt plate supply. I'll bet you're sorry you asked now.

One of the "advantages" of being in this hobby for a long time is that
you get to see a lot of things come and go. I can remember when I
heard virtually the same comment about nickel cadmium batteries. I
also remember a club member's airplane was blown in half when his six
year old son cranked up the charge rate on his home made variable
charger and the battery pack exploded. When the average modeler gets
smart about proper charging of lithium battery packs, we'll start
worrying about a new battery chemistry.
