Default JR PCM-9 help

Hey guys,
I had hoped to breath some life into my JR "PCM 9 G-Series" single stick Tx; old but hardly, very hardlyused at all.I had removed thebatteries awhile back and grabbed a replacement pack at aswap meet this weekend, along with the old style black connector. I though I had recalled where the old battery plugged in, and did so according to the connector's orientation (yep, threw out or misplaced the old pack). On power up, I heard a snap/pop.... yep, a big ole @(&^**& escaped my mouth. I was able to pull the fuse but it appears okay. Before I contact Tony at RSI for a quote, I was wondering/hoping that someone might know the polarity of the JR connector or have some pics of the battery connect terminal. It is numbered 1 and 2 with the red wire being the #2 and that coincides with my JR Century VII Tx. I'm aware of the JR charger polarity issue compared to others, but.... Checking with a multi meter, the batteries are of the same polarity, that is red ispos and black is neg. I did assume the Tx was 9.6V, could I have been wrong there? Thanks for any feedback, thoughts, or ideas guys. Wish I hadn't sold the Futaba SS now, may have to hurry up that Kraft Spektrum mod.
