So this is almost too simple to share, but I like the results so much I thought I would post. (Forgive me if its been shared before)

My car has a small AUXILLARY input jack which my Daughter used to always plug her I-Phone in to listen to music. I never used it.....but it still had the cord hanging out of it and I looked down and thought: "Wonder if that would plug into the External Speaker of my SSB Transceiver ??"

I plugged it in and yes, it fed nice receive into the car stereo....but just on one side, (output of radio is MONO vs Stereo). I went to Radio Rat and bought a mono plug and soldered it on the radio end of the wire. Now I have nice rich sounding receive through the car stereo system. I can use the equalizer to get the sound "just how I like it". Beats the hell out of the crappy transceiver speaker or having to mount a external speaker in the car ! !

Its amazing how much more I can hear with all 4 speakers in the car working to distribute the receive !

You should have just picked up a mono-to-stereo adapter and avoided the soldering. That way you could preserve the stereo input for other things if the situation should arise.

I have been doing this for years before AUX inputs. Just got a cassette adapter and I was good to go. You all remember cassettes right?

Still use that exact same thing in our honda accord '96. Use it to plug in a mp3 player.
