I still have an old ipod. So old it has no wireless ability. I want to use it in my car which doesn't have a cassette or cd player. It plugs into the car's usb port but the car radio "doesn't see it". Any tips on how to get it to work?

You can use 3.5mm jack to bluetooth adapter.

That's really annoying for everyone else though.

Low power. Only picks up your cars receiver, and potentially neighboring vehicles temporarily if they are receiving at the same frequency.

Yeah If you use the same frequency as an existing station.

They pack them in as tight as they can, so doing that fucks up two stations instead....
