The Zenith TO B600 used 2 batteries, an "A" battery and a "B"
battery. The A battery was 9 volts, and the B battery was 90 volts. These batteries are no longer available, but you can use standard 9V batteries to make them up.
The B600 is rated at 60mA @ 9V, and 11.5mA @ 90V. A standard 9V transistor battery is rated at about 200 mAh @ 9V, so it would last 3 hours. If you want more time than this, parallel standard 9 volt batteries.
As for the 90 volt, simply use ten 9 volt batteries in series. It should last 10 - 12 hours.

I don't know whether your particular radio requires a 9 volt battery, but you can easily tell by opening the battery compartment and seeing what is inside. (The usual alternatives are a single 9-volt, or several AA or C cells.) Any of these are as common as dirt and can be purchased nearly anywhere in the world.

So buy one!
use a 12 volt and power regulator to produce 9 volts, any electronic supply sells 9 volt regulators!
