Well, after doing more research on bluetooth, compression, apple airplay, etc. that's probably what I'm going to do too. Do you have a recommendation for an FM tuner?

I'm currently looking at this: Yamaha T-S500BL AM/FM Tuner

Lol, I can't believe that I'm asking for recommendations for an FM tuner in 2016, only to use it to plug into an AM transmitter (!) to play that signal over a nearly 80-year old vacuum-tube powered radio in mono. Surely I've crossed over into an alternate reality. . . .
