This Automatic Radio FM/TV Converter has been designed for use in automobiles having a 12 Volt negative ground. It has a superheterodyne-type circuit to drive an AM (1400kHz) oscillator converter. RF amplification has been incorporated into the converter to provide greater sensitivity for FM and TV reception. The FM/TV Converter uses a regular carradio antenna. It changes FM signals to AM signals and feeds converted signals to an old AM carradio. So it converts solid-state or tube-type AM autoradios to FM/TV. You must tune the AM autoradio to 1400kHz on the AM radio dial scale.
