On one of my "Where in the World is Carmen IBUZ" store trips I recall 
seeing a receiver that had just that. My Pioneer has an auxiliary 
input in the rear and another on the IP bus. I've simply run a short 
cable to the front to connect my MP3 player. When I bought the 
modulator I added a switch and a dash mounted jack. The switch allows 
yet another auxiliary input along with my mobile Ham transceiver. The 
third auxiliary input is on the IP bus and is unused.

I no longer use the modulator for the Ham radio because it passes the 
CTCSS tone perfectly through the subwoofer and 4 speakers.
