When I plug in the wall charger, the signal does get weaker, as I can hear a little bit of static, but yes, toggling the widget gets it back to full power.

However with the USB charger + car charger, as soon as I plug them in, the yellow note comes up "Unplug USB to continue using FM transmitter", attempting to turn the widget back on says "FM-Transmitter Power level set to: 118", but nothing get transmitted. Trying to turn it on via media player says "Unable to use FM transmitter while USB is connected. Unplug USB to continue using FM transmitter" So it seems like it is being totally disabled, not just set really to really low power. As soon as I unplug that charger, I can toggle it back on.
