As an audio person, the concept of taking this pure clean signal and running
it through a cassette adapter defeats the whole purpose of the thing.  I
find the idea of the FM adapter equally as silly.  Using the RCA's is the
only way that I'd consider.

The antennas for these units aren't made by the radio manufacturers.  All of
the antennas that I've seen are third party.  There are a couple of
different options on these that I've found.
