I am looking at a number of FM transmitter circuits, purely as a
project, but all of them use electret microphones as input. Would it
be possible to replace this with an audio input for my iPod?

I found a circuit that does use a regular audio input, but I can't
find a couple of capacitor values at *** Smith. The caps have to be
ceramic. I can find a 3.3 pF for the 3 pF, but I can't find a 10 nF
ceramic unit. Would it be OK to just parallel 10 1 nF caps, until I
can find a 10 nF unit?

Yeah the 3.3 is good enough. Isn't 10 nano farad just another way of
saying .01 microfarad? .01 microfarad is very common.
