5.0 out of 5 stars Does the job quite well, December 4, 2005

By	J. Lowry "SPOTD Creator" (Gainesville, FL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this on a recommendation from a friend. I was wary of the FM transmitters, as I had read of poor performance. This friend was very positive, so combined with my previous positive experience with Monster products, I decided to give it a go.
I rated it 5 stars because it accomplishes exactly what it says it should. When I selected an empty station for it to play on, the sound was clear and of high quality with only a few exceptions. I took it on a 6 hour road trip and it worked perfectly. The only difficulty is when you come to a place (like Southern Cal) with many radio stations. Finding a frequency may be difficult in that circumstance. It was convenient to be able to charge the iPod as well.
It does what it claims and well.

2.0 out of 5 stars Check your local frequencies first, January 1, 2007

By	I. Morgan (Washington DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This device limits you to a handful of preset frequencies, all of them at the bottom of the dial. While it has done decent service in my local area, we could not use our iPod at all on a recent trip through Pennsylvania because the stations were constantly in use. Not to mention that the price is pretty high for what this delivers. We will be looking for something else before our next roadtrip. I would have given it 3 stars if not for the lingering frustration at having to listen to lousy commercial radio for four hours!
The first company to attach a tuning dial to one of these gadgets will make a fortune. In the meantime, if your area has no stations between 87.9 and 89.1, then perhaps this is the FM transmitter for you.

As long as you have an open radio station it works great. I drove from Florida to Texas and back and had to change the station about once every few hours. To me that's much better than buying a new stereo.
