Yes, and I almost said something about those.  The closest I got to a 
vibrator power supply was the 2M RCA Carfone I got 40 years ago, and which 
I used at home by taking out the vibrators and feeding 12v or so AC into 
the rig where the vibrators were.

Of course, I was thinking in terms of external supplies, those didn't turn 
to switching until relatively recently.
