Life Before Satellite Radio For nine decades, we’ve been cruising along in our automobiles, accompanied by music. You could say the two go hand-in-hand. Here’s a look at how we got to satellite connectivity, all the way from AM/FM broadcast.
1963
All-Transistor Radio
A number of manufacturers introduced transistors to their after-market car radios in the early 1960s, but Becker’s Monte Carlo was the first to be fully “solid state”—no vacuum tubes.
1930
Commercial In-Car Radio
In 1930, Paul and Joseph Galvin, along with William Lear, developed the first dashboard radio at the cost of $130 (the cost of a Model A Deluxe coupe at the time was $540). The Galvins named their radio “Motorola” or motorized Victrola, debuting in a Studebaker.
The first radio motorized Victrola, “Motorola”
1985
Becker’s 1963 Monte Carlo
1965
Eight-Track
Stereo 8, or eight-track tapes, are now typically known for having terrible sound quality and for being poorly constructed; but in 1965, Ford and Motorola introduced eight-track players for in-car audio. They were the predecessor to the cassette tape and stuck around through most of the 1970s.
1952
FM Radio
AM radio ruled the airwaves, but in 1952 Blaupunkt, a German manufacturing company, introduced the first in-car FM radio. AM radio still dominated well into the 1960s.
Eight-track
1969 Stereo
Becker’s Europa was the first in-car stereo setup, with the tuner amplifying two channels instead of one.
1970
Cassette Tape Players
1952 Blaupunkt
1953
Becker Mexico Introduced
Becker’s iconic Mexico radio launched a premium in-car radio in 1953. It had AM/FM and the first fully automatic station-search button. And newer transistor-based radios in the mid-to-late 1960s reduced the amount of space and power required—no more vacuum tubes.
1956
Music On Demand
Chrysler offered a small turntable in its high-end cars, playing proprietary seven-inch records with about 45 minutes of music. Needless to say, it didn’t last very long.
system. These were primarily found in Oldsmobiles, Buicks and Cadillacs. The early 1980s also brought us the “Benzi box”-style pull-out stereo receivers, which were a response to the plague of break-ins and theft that afflicted many cities in the U.S. Later, receivers with detachable and even motorized faceplates were available. Multiple speaker configurations also became increasingly popular, including subwoofers and customized installations.
Cassette tapes allowed for a customized playlist: the mix tape. This development also led to the creation of after-market cassette-tape players from Alpine, Pioneer and others.

2010 Satellite
Bluetooth streaming, satellite radio, electrical connectors and internet Factory-Installed In-Dash radio dominate today. Some vehicle CD Player manufacturers have their own systems While Sony had introduced an indash player the previous year, Becker’s for syncing the car with smartphones, for example: BMW Assist, Ford SYNC, Mexico Compact Disc (CD) was the OnStar and Jeep U-Connect. first to be factory installed. The CD brought improved sound quality that remained pristine for thousands of plays, instead of degrading over time like cassettes did—except until scratches rendered it unreadable. CDs also let you skip tracks back and forth instantaneously, instead of tedious fast forwarding and rewinding. Multi-disc CD changers began to appear in the late 1980s and let you store as many as five, six or even 10 CDs at a time, and switch between them while you were driving.
2000
Digital Music Revolution
Cars began to come with auxiliary inputs that connected to any MP3 player’s headphone jack. Integration for the iPod was still a few years off. As soon as the iPod and competing models became popular, sales and usage of the CD began to decline.

A Little Auto Care Goes A Long Way AUTO CARE from page 11A Fall Car Care Month in October is the ideal time to give your car some extra attention before harsh winter weather sets in. Taking a little time for auto care now can help you avoid the headaches of a costly emergency breakdown later.
7
Check the heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system as proper heating and cooling performance is critical for interior comfort and safety reasons, such as defrosting.
9
Check the tires, including tire pressure and tread. Uneven wear indicates a need for wheel alignment. Tires should also be checked for bulges and bald spots.
10
Check the wipers and lighting so that you can see and be seen. Check that all interior and exterior lighting is working properly and replace worn wiper blades so you can see clearly when driving during precipitation.
1
Check all fluids, including engine oil, power steering, brake and transmission as well as windshield washer solvent and antifreeze/ coolant.
2
Check the hoses and belts to make sure they are not cracked, brittle, frayed, loose or showing signs of excessive wear.
3
Check the battery and replace if necessary. Make sure the connection is clean, tight and corrosion-free.
4
Check the brake system annually and have the brake linings, rotors and drums inspected at each oil change.
5
Inspect the exhaust system for leaks, damage and broken supports or hangers if there is an unusual noise. Exhaust leaks can be dangerous and must be corrected without delay.
6
Check the engine to make sure it is delivering the best balance of power and fuel economy and producing the lowest level of emissions.
8
Inspect the steering and suspension system annually, including shock absorbers, struts and chassis parts such as ball joints, tie rod ends and other related components.
