Hitachi TH-623 - 6 Transistor AM Portable Solid State Radio *FOR PARTS* (READ)

Hitachi TH-623 Transistor Radio. Manufactured in 1971. Radio itself is in very good condition considering age however, the battery case is broken, and I’m unsure if it’s able to communicate to read the batteries. I was able to get a bit of static for a few seconds but now I can’t seem to get it working. I don’t have much knowledge on repairs therefore I will be selling this as is. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you.
