I'm currently working my way through a vero of the Schumann pll and I'm trying to find a 12VAC adapter but no luck. All the adapters I can see on eBay are acdc. I'm in the uk, anyone have any suggestions where I can find such a contraption?

This is a long shot but i've a few 12vac adapters that at one time powered Ikea halogen lamps, any chance of scavenging something like that on your side of the Atlantic?

I wound up buying a Cioks AC10. As well as the schumann (still not bloody going), it powers Heavy Water, and more importantly my eurorack synth :D

Oh, and the 9VDC are useful for some esoteric electronics as well, from time to time ;)

I was getting ready to pull the trigger on a cioks till I found out what it was and how much it cost!  I'm just building the PLL just for the hell of it, it's not really something I have a use for so I'm gonna have to go for a more economical solution. Which PLL did you make, vero or PCB?

Charge pump and run it in DC.

So, just a roadrage and 12vdc?

Ps, I've built your doppelgänger, shoebox version, build report coming soon...
