What devices will work NOT with the Mix-It2?

Certain FM radios don’t work with the Mix-It2 when the Mix-It2 is operating off of bike power due to interference by the oscillator in the DC converter of the Mix-It2. I have not found a way to shield this though the problem has only been reported twice, so I presume FM radios are not a common device used with the Mix-It2. Helmet speakers, unless they are rated at 16 ohms or higher, typically will not work with the Mix-It2. Other products require an isolation cable for use with earlier Garmin GPS units (those that do not have MP3 playback nor satellite radio capability), Escort/Bell/Cobra radar detectors but the Mix-It2 does not since it has isolation built into two jacks – all that is required is a mono patch cord.
