[oletrucks] 6V radio? or 6V to 12V DC converter?

[TomGreer@aol.com]

I am looking for a good radio solution for my '49 3100.  

Has anyone had good luck with those 6V to 12V DC voltage converters (I'm 6V) 
?  

Or are there any extra (working) 6V radios out there looking for a good home 
(when you wish upon a star...)???

Are the original 6V radios worthy of sound and reliability? - I know the 
mellow tube sound is a good thing, but only when working.

Thanks in ADvance,

Tom
