So - which voltage regs are your fave choices here? Good quality
output important, but cost also a consideration. This looks right up
Jim's street for starters.

FWIW I tried various types of 'IC voltage regulator/stabiliser chip'
some years ago and decided I wasn't keen on any of the common types.
Too prone to oscillations or excess noise, etc. Newer ones may be
better, but I lost interest in using them. :-)


Shouldn't you valve types be using DC from batteries;?...

The only valves I've done PSUs for were klystrons or carcinotrons. I
suspect the battery stacks for those would have been quite large. ;-

**"Carcinotron"? I had to look that one up. A type of travelling wave tube.
I thought I'd heard all the names, but the choice of the name: carcinotron
was sure an unfortunate one.
