Generator not charging

I don't think my generator on my 1010 is charging. I thought my battery needed replacing as it had some age on it. I put a new battery in it but now have figured out the generator must not be charging because I still have the problem of the battery going dead after running the tractor for a while. I thought about replacing the generator with a alternator but I kind of would like to keep the tractor in its original condition. What is everyone's thoughts on this idea of changing over to a alternator?
Thanks for your opinion's and ideas,
Donnie,

I have considered it for my 1010 but decided against it. Had the same thoughts years ago for an Allis WD and left the generator on it also. If I am correct, for an alternator to work at all you have to have battery power. A properly polarized generator will generate without a battery, so with a dead battery you could pull the tractor to start it. With an alternator and a dead battery you could not.
