I have to agree with Ron, the SSTRANS is a great way to get any music to your AM radios without any change to the radio. It works well on any radio I have with the radios having nothing more than a couple of feet of wire for the antenna. I have an FM tuner connected (set on mono), a 30 stack CD player (set to mono) and an MP3 player connection. Seems to have no conflict unless you have a couple on at the same time. I did add additional input connectors to back of the SSTRANS. I could no doubt add my old laptop to it as well but just not enough space for the old laptop to set it somewhere.
Best, Jerry
