19 set AC power supply

[Bob Phillips]

I talked to well known radio ham /WW2 re enactor Dave Lawrence a couple of years ago at the Oshawa show. He has written extensively on the #19 set as well as set up displays at MV shows. He assured me that in the " old days" of ham radio many AC power supplies were easily built to eliminate the need for the heavy / ugly /power hungry power supply.As for the vibrator most of them are long dead. I just want a nice simple AC powr supply to run the receiver only. If I come up with a schematic I will pass it along!
