It is more expensive to provide a dual primary transformer so Astron supplies single primary transformers. You either order it for 120 or 240, no switching back and forth. On way to still use the supply on 120 may be to find a 120 to 240 isolation transformer on ebay. They can be had for around $1

The secondary DC after capacitors in a "normal" astron ( using its correct input voltage ) is about 26 vdc after filtering and across the capacitors.. If you run a 220 astron at 120vac , the voltage would be half or so, or ~13vdc. This is not enough overhead to "regulate" but the regulator will
