Default 1st Gen alternator problem, I think

On my '87 Si, the car runs great, the battery stays charged, and I have no complaints... during the day.

At night with the lights on, the idle speed drops a couple hundred RPM. And when I put on my turn signal indicators, the idle speed drops another couple hundred RPM.

I believe that my problem is the either the alternator or the voltage regulator (which is built into the alternator).

Can anyone confirm this diagnosis?
