[Swan] SWAN 350 power supply

[Greg Mijal]

Here in the US, yes,  that is the usual solution.  Swan power supplies are 
plentiful. A Drake AC3 or AC4 will also work but you need to re-wire the DC 
connector.
I suggest you build your own supply or buy a used one from Ebay or someone. 
Ebay also has transformers. Eventually the kind you need will show up.
Good luck
