You're talking about the selenium rectifier used to
run the antenna relay?

I use a bolt-in 10A bridge rectifier, the type with
one hole in the middle. Current-wise it's way overkill
but the determining factor in my case was the
ease of bolting it in.

Others here will fret over not matching the voltage
drop of the selenium rectifier, but not me. I'm the guy
who would prefer to blow stuff up early rather than
worry about it for years :-).
