The Majestic 420 (love that model number ) is a battery only set and would need a separate AC supply if not using batteries . For all my old portables I've had great success stringing enough 9 volt batteries together in series to get the required B+ , in this radio's instance 45 volts so 5 in series is the right number and for the A (filament) supply a couple of "D" sized flashlight cells hooked in parallel will last long enough to get some good listening out of it .
