Crosley 5B3

Finishing up a Crosley 5B3 battery tombstone. All the battery wires are marked and correspond with the schematic with the exception of the one for the "A" battery. It is also not called out on the schematic. Anyone know what it should be? I am guessing 1.5-2.0 volts????
Thanks
Jon.

Jon: 2.5V. Look at the tube data on this site to verify.

Doug,
Thanks for the direction, all this is just starting to make a little sense. This forum has been invaluable for this newbie. One more question, are 2.o-2.5 volt batteries available? Again, many thanks.

Here's the schematic: http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel/514/M0003514.pdf

Besides the A voltage, it takes three different B voltates, plus a C voltage.

I think you'd be better off using a battery eliminator, and kill all birds with one stone. The battery eliminator kit sold by AES www.tubesandmore.com would work.
