When you say "keeping it to one station"... do you mean the AM or the
FM?... I want to be able to change the AM, but if I have to keep the
Blaupunkt at one frequency to receive the signal from the converter, I
wouldn't mind at all.


GS Seeing as how you are a "packer fan" I may have just what you are
GS looking for. I have one of those FM to AM converters. Got it sometime
GS in the 70's. It is a very small box about 3/4 inch high by about 4 x 6
GS inches. Used it in a car that came with only an AM radio. Just plugs
GS into the antenna jack and the car antenna plugs into it. Needs to also
GS hook to 12 volt power. Push the button and it switches the converter
GS in line. Set a push button on the am radio the the output frequency of
GS the converter and tune in your FM station with the knob on the
GS converter. It is mono FM though. No stereo. Works great. Email me at
GS
if interested.


I found the converter box in the garage shelf I had mentioned. However
it turned out to be an 8-track converter. Remember 8-track?! WOW!

A*s*i*m*o*v

.... I cut it three times already and it's still too short!
