Default Use 100 Volt AC radio in UK?

You can certainly buy a mains voltage converter for it (won't cost you
much more than a new clock radio, probably :-). But if this is like
most of them, it uses the mains frequency to run the clock. 50Hz vs
60Hz mains will make it run very slow.


Er . . . ah . . . yes, I think I am familiar with a "mains voltage
converter". VERY HEAVY blockish thing, about 9" x 9"?
