Have you considered purchasing an FM transmitter for your iPod instead? It will certainly be easier to install and use. Some varieties utilize batteries to operate, but I would recommend that you purchase a unit that plugs into the cigarette lighter of the vehicle. Then you simply turn the transmitter to a little used station for your area and tune the radio of the vehicle to the appropriate frequency. plug the aux cord of the transmitter in the headphone jack of the iPod. you can use the volume of the iPod as a pre-amp for the car radio to make sure and limit the amount of distortion. The sound quality for these set-ups can be very good.

How do you connect a wire from a walkie talkie atenna to a head phone jack in a walkman?

Answer: # Why you want to connect antenna from walkie-talkie to mini jack in walkman??? # Two-way radio antennas has got standard connector plugs (UHF, BNC, N-Type, Mini UHF, etc). Mini Jack plug is not used for antenna connection. # Two-way radio antenna is usually piece of wire or steel rod. The antenna cable has got positive wire in the middle, and grounded shield (screen) around. Signal goes to / from antenna through the wire in the middle to the receiver / transmitter. Screen/shield protects the signal from radiating out the wire. # Answer: Use proper cable and proper plugs and sockets, if you need to send or receive good signal to / from your walkie talkie. Do not use mini jack plug for this purpose, it will not work good.
