Default Re: Wiring 'Aux-in' (iPod) connectors to Car radios

(Almost)all Car radio Speakers are 4 ohms in any case, so two 4 ohm speakers in parallel should be OK. Bear in mind that the output power of that Motorola amplifier (and indeed most others of that era) is, at most, 6 watts RMS into 4 ohms, so don't expect modern 'HiFi Performance from it, though the sound quality into a pair ofspeakers should be good.
AS to AM Broadcasting in the UK, on MW there is/are BBC R5 Live, Talksport, Absolute Radio, and, in some areas, local or regional stations. On LW, BBC R4 is the only UK station, but RTE R1 on 252kHz is usually a good signal, as are Europe#1. RTL (in French), and France on 182kHz.
