I am thinking of gutting an old vintage radio and then installing an iphone speaker in there so that I can plug in my iphone at the back and it blasts through the speaker screens on the old radio.. I'll let you know how it it turns out. It will work great but you need to install two speakers to have stereo out put or part of your music will be missing. |

That's a great idea. I have a couple of wireless speakers that link with my iPod and iPhone. That might be an idea if the case didn't impede the wireless signal.

I have to get some photos but I am collecting stuff and have an old 50s radio with TUBES and it works. Same color as the appliances in the Kenskill. I am looking for a 50s ham radio being that I just happen to have a ham license. Looking for a 10 meter rig at maybe 100 watts.

The old phono jack won't work for an I pod. If you want quality sound you will need Stereo speakers. They make small speaker units that could go inside the old radio case that are already wired for your I pod.
