FM radio prices
I was Floored at the price of this radio! Is the going rate for these? I was wondering if anyone has had they're stock AM converted to FM or XM satellite. Costs less than these original FM deals. Pros/Cons? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT

I will stick with my mini-ipod. Only music I wish to hear and 0 commercials! It holds 50 cds of songs, 1000. It even reads e-books to you so learn while you work, it works for me.

Am/fm
One recently sold on E-bay for $113.00. As recent as December. I don't know if it was a truck or van. The seller did not have a picture in the index area but did have pics in the listing. I think a lot of people overlooked it.

The original truck am/fm is not all that rare. Even "refreshed" they play crappy as the tuner is mechanical with limited draw. I guess if you want originallity, fine as long as you put a nice current technology CD player somewhere so you can actually pull in sounds out in the boonies from more then 3 am channels!

That radio on ebay is so fat, I wonder if it has tubes. Something inside needs that huge heatsink.

That 8 track player I got on e bay was still unmolested in the box with the plastic still sealed around it . Still had the warranty registration card and service manual from 1976 .I dont think I'll send it in for registration.I've got a couple hundred old 8 tracks that still sound good. Call me an old man with no sense if you must, When I first tryed an 8 track tape it brought back some good memories of girls and drag races in the 70's.

I used to love 8 tracks players. As a kid I used to push the track select button as quickly as possible to see how fast I could make the track select light move!.lol
