You can find folks that sell plastic enclosures that you absolutely fill up with AA cells to run your T-O, or you can "roll your own". I made one from a sheet of Masonite pegboard that fit in the bottom of the cabinet, with ten 9V battery holders glued down to it and connected in series, and another battery holder that holds six C-cells. I haven't installed it yet, but I have room for a D-cell holder for the dial lamp. I got lucky and found a plug that mates with the battery cable socket, before I was just using alligator clips for testing. Now I have to get the radio tuned up...
