Default Re: DIY battery eliminator for valve radio

I notice you're in Queensland Argus 25.
We asked our Alexa to play Classic Gold FM the other day, thinking it was a local UK station, but much to our surprise it turned out to be in Queensland.
Anyway it's now a firm favourite. Not so many commercials and lots of unusual 50s tunes.
For locals....what about 252KHz from Ireland? It disappeared the other day and a French and a Danish station popped up in its place. Maybe a PA valve needed changing, but it took a week or so wasn't an easy job. Radio 4 is hanging on a thread. They say if a valve pops that'll be the end of 198KHz.
