My conversion board has that as an available feature. You turn it on and you can here it "warm-up" like a tube radio. It was designed to fool judges at car shows, so know one would know it was converted. I didn't care about that, so mine just turns right on.

I picked up the radio today. Ralph went through all the features with me and had me pair my phone to it. I knew it would have bluetooth for playing music, but having it for hands free calling like a my modern driver is a very nice feature. Like a modern radio, it will mute the sound when a incoming call comes in and I can hit the wonderbar to accept the call. It comes with a microphone mounted in the radio and a extension that allows you to mount it up in the headliner if desired.

The dual voice coil 6x9 that replaced the mono petrified 6x9 sounds very good. He was also able to incorporate the external rear speaker switch to function as such.

All it all I'm extremely happy with it. It all looks completely stock. Just more audio options and better sound.
