  I have the FM modulator in the Linuxy-Pacer Wagon to make the sat.
radio work.  (Lime green is the New Orange, I'm telling you!)  What
Andrew says is true; it doesn't sound as good as a good FM station.
And if you are close to an FM transmitter (like within a couple of
city blocks of the CN Tower, you get no signal and lots of noise.

  On the other hand, the FM modulator was way simpler to install than
a new head unit with two AUX ins.
