Great iPod transmitter.......2007-12-23
I can fire this up in San Jose and drive to Los Angeles without having to change the station. And when I have to change the station, it's easy and straightforward to do. I am much happier with this transmitter than I was with a previous transmitter from a different company. If you don't want to buy a new car with Sync, try this instead!
iGriffen better FM transmitter.......2007-12-18
I live in Charlotte, NC and bought this as a replacement for my Griffin FM transmitter: (Griffin 9781) (had a flaky connection to ipod) and the static/white noise I receive from the Kensington transmitter is much worse than the Griffin.
broke after a couple of months.......2007-12-13
It was stuck in the cigarette lighter of the car. I was trying to get it out and I guess I pulled too hard because it broke. :( It worked well before that.
You're listening to KiPd-FM!.......2007-12-13
Between my iPod nano and this charger/transmitter, I've decided to leave the 10-disc CD changer in my 1996 Subaru Legacy if I ever sell it.
My commute takes me from the Inland Empire of Southern California to Pomona, at the very edge of L.A. county, so you'd think it would be impossible to find a quiet FM channel. Nope. 90.5 is perfect, as are a couple higher up the scale.
The secret is knowing what to listen and look for. Begin at home with the car parked in the driveway, not in the garage and definitely NOT while hurtling down the freeway. With the transmitter unplugged from the accessory or lighter outlet, start at the bottom of your car radio's FM band and tune 1 channel (.2 MHz) at a time until you can hear only white noise and can't see the "STEREO" indicator. Set a button for that frequency, and then repeat the procedure until you find two more. The lower the frequency (below 100 MHz), the better the performance. If you can't find any completely quiet channels, opt for those that are too weak to turn on the "STEREO" indicator.
Now plug in the transmitter and tune its three buttons to the same channels. Attach your iPod and play some tunes. Once you know where you're going to put your iPod, coil up the excess cable to improve the signal strength.
If your travels take you outside your local area, you might have to repeat the procedure. I have yet to see how well it works for, say, a trip from home to the Getty Museum or up to Lake Tahoe, but for now it's MY music that keeps me company on the ride to work and back.
Excellent, but...........2007-12-12
Before you buy this product, keep in mind where the outlet in your car is. The reception and sound quality is excellent and it is easy to search for new stations. But, I plug it into an armrest between the two front seats of my Explorer. You cannot see what station you are programmed to. If I lose reception, I search on my radio for a free station and then have to use the up and down buttons slowly until I hear the song that is playing on my IPod.
