FM CONVERTER

[harold prentice]

For all you AM radio owners, who don't wish to change your radio, here's something that may work for you. It's called an FM converter and these things were widely available back in the late 70's. early 80's - had one on my '73 Duster. The antenna plugs into the unit, an antenna lead runs from the converter to your radio then all you have to do is wire up 12 volts to it. AM radio frequency is set to a specific place (mine is 1400 KHZ) and the converter will pump FM stations through your AM radio. I bought one of these from a Radio restoration expert in Brighton, On. and it works well - within the limitations of the original speaker, of course! I could have gone the optional route of having my AM radio converted for stereo, 6 speakers, Ipod jack, etc. but didn't want to cut up my original parcel shelf, door panels and so on. Not perfect put pretty cool and sort of period correct.1877

Here is another option looks like a good idea but I have not used one. I have seen the fm converters and have used them in the past but with this you can use other things like cd players and use the stock radio.
