537439 2007-04-01 08:43:00 I have replaced my old iPod with a new one but it comes with a problem, I prefer to listen to my music via radio rather than by headphones. However I find the new model has only a headphone socket and lacks the second adjacent slot which my my iTrip used as part of its connection. Are newer iPods designed specifically to no longer support iTrip connections? I know some radios have auxilliary imput jacks for a special lead to the iPod headphone socket but not all radios such as my car radio have this facility.
Is there available on the market an alternative transmitting gizmo that works like anTrip but only needs the iPd headphone socket?

537440 2007-04-01 08:50:00 What Ipod did u buy? The video Ipod?

If u have, then yup, the Video doesnt support the same Itrip.

But I think the Video supports Radio, by plugging into the bottom of it.

Something like this I think (www.dse.co.nz)

I think there's also some kind of radio for the Video Ipod, thats got the tuner built in or something. So, u dont have to be near a radio to use it.

537441 2007-04-01 12:01:00 Thanks a lot Speedy. Yes, My new one is a video type but I think the answer seems to be in the type of iTrip you illustrated for me - the type you plug in the bottom [docking ] end at DSL. Of course it seems that if you have an iTrip in that end you can't use mains at the same time.
I appreciate your help.
