That particular product is known as a modulator. Most (if not all) the
ones they sell these days are for FM, as the AM only market is pretty
limited. (Most people are trying to add CD, MP3, or Satellite to their
AM/FM unit.)
The classic car market is probably the only group that would still find an
AM modulator useful, so if they're making them (again?), that's good news.
Note: You can also buy modulators for older TVs which go inline with the
rabbit ears and let you tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 to see/hear the DVD
player you plugged into the modulator. The old adapters for Atari/Nintendo
did basically the same thing, but weren't as universal. The HD conversion
boxes use the same idea.

Over on the Forwardlook site last week, someone posted a link about a
device that installs out of sight and connects in line to the AM antenna
cable. It has a wire with a plug that you can connect to a CD player, an
Ipod, sirrus sattelight, or other similar devices.. When you plug it in,
it disconnects the antenna signal and maybe the radio tuner, but plays
one of the devices through your radio and sound system. Costs about $125
Sounded good to me. If anyone is interested I will try to find the
link.......................MO...........sw iowa

We had a discussion here, not too long ago, about radios. Here is some
text from an ad:
"This is a rebuilt 1965 Plymouth AM Radio. This radio came out of my
1965 Belvedere but should fit other models. Mopar model number, 224,
Bendix model number. 5BP. This is a repaired working radio. The tuning
mechnism has been cleaned and lubed. It works smoothly and the push
buttons work. I have replaced the dial lamp. Sorry I do not have the the
knobs for this radio.
"I have added an auxiliary input jack for a MP3 player or Portable CD
player. The radio will auto mute when a MP3 player is plugged in. Use
the players volume and tone controls to change settings. The radio has
been aligned and I have added longer power and dial lamp wiring. The
radio sounds good and has plenty of volume. Any player, MP3, CD, IPOD
and Walkman will work all it needs is a headphone jack. Note: Many MP3
players also have FM tunners in them."
I did not know you could modify a stock AM radio so it played FM and MP3
CD. Interesting option!
