If you have a voltmeter, its possible to check out the alternator, and if you don't most shops or parts stores should be able to do a battery/charging system check. They should have a load tool that can place a load on the battery and check the charging system.
The voltage regulator is a DIY job and can be replaced. You also might want to check your battery, especially if you do have a bad VR, it could be worn down and leave you stuck somewhere, ask me how I know ;)
