You could try something like this with a small 6 volt or 12 volt gel cell for the A battery. https://www.allelectronics.com/item/udc-...-3a/1.html   There are some liner voltage regulators out there rated at 5 amps add a few resistors to adj the output voltage. Will try and get a part number some time today have a few in the workshop. I find when the power goes out during a storm or hurricane much better radio reception.
