I may venture to try one at some point, but I heard that the FCC required them to lower transmission power years ago, which made them easy to be drowned out and such. I think I'd still prefer a modulator that ties in because you're assured full signal quality. The one I tried would kill reception from the antenna. So even if you got to an area with an FM station on the same frequency, it wasn't an issue because the modulator blocked it. The downside is you had to switch the modulator off (or rely on slightly delayed auto shutoff) to listen to FM again. That wasn't a concern for me since I don't listen to terrestrial radio anymore anyway.
