Jim or anyone else,

How does the transmitter from Ramsey electronics compare with the C Crane 
transmitter in terms of range and sound quality?

The FM transmitter sends a signal from your computer to your stereo receiver
and not to your computer..  It can also broadcast from any portable audio
device that has a headphone jack.  But again, the signal is going to your FM
receiver, not to your computer.  These transmitters are small affairs,
smaller than a pack of cigarettes.  You can find them at Veronica, C Crane,
Ramsey Electronics, and Blackbox Mobile.  Some allow you to transmit on any
FM channel you wish while others have preset channels.  It takes no
sophistication at all to use these things.  If you need more specifis,
contact me off-list.

hello,

a quesion to those who own a usb fm transmitter.

how do you set the frequency on this kind of device? is this on the
device itself or via a software?

also, how is it recognized by Windows, is it an aditionnal audio
output peripheral or do one need to connect the audio source via a
jack?

RE: USB fm transmitter info needed

My situation was this: I had to transmit a signal 60 feet thru two walls as
well as a ceiling and roof to an outside antenna.  The C Crane product and
the Ramsey product could not do this according to both of their tech
departments which I had contacted.  Beronica had a transmitter that could
transmit this strong but they could only ship this from England,
unassembled and then I would have to solder it together.  I bought the
Blackbox Mobile off eBay for around $60 including tax and shipping.  It
works great and is very simple to use.  Its only drawback is that it has
just 4 preset channels, all four being around 107 Mhz.  If that is a crowded
corridor for you, the Blackbox may not be right for you.  The blackbox is a
plastic rectangle, about three quarters thick and three inches wide and
maybe 4 inches long.  The antenna is just a thin wire about 20 inches long.
There's an on-off button and a toggle to the four presets.  You plug it into
the earphone jack of device you are transmitting from.  It runs off three
[?] double A batteries.
