Doug's radio project




Hey Doug, and the rest of you guys too.
I am also in the process of modifying an am radio to am/fm. I used the 64
Plymouth model 220. I'm not sure which other cars used the same.
I used brand new parts. It looks all original from the front except for two
micro LEDs that are placed in the station indicator plate where the two
circles are. The green one tells you that it is in fm mode. The red tells
you when you have the strongest station signal. Also in front that is not
original, is a small round hole where an aux audio jack is placed. You can
hook up a portable CD player or even your Ipod.
The pushbuttons do not work as original. But they do have some use. The
first button is used to put it into am or fm mode. The second and third are
dummies for now (but I'm still thinking). The fourth is used for stereo or
mono mode. That is useful for the guys that want to only have one speaker in
the dash. The fifth and last button is a BASS boost.
Other specs are, 30 watts x 2, RCA preamp outputs, and an aux power wire for
an amp or power ant.
I will tell you that Doug is right. It takes time and patience. That is why
I am not finished yet. I need to mount the oscillator/tuner and tie in the
indicator needle. I got to the point where I had to step back for a while
and rest my mind and I will get back on it soon. When I do finish, I will
try to get you guys some pics.
