You must be nuts.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
Maybe your screenreading software was crashing because it was jaws, because I have been using the software under windows and mac os for over a year no problem. Since the software is totally accessible under window-eyes and voiceover I can only feel sorry for jaws users who are missing out on an audio experience that far out does a fm transmitters.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
First, if I were you I would quit saying that Jtunes was anywhere near $1000. In fact, though I don't use Jaws, I happen to know that Jtunes is just a set of Jaws scripts, and though I haven't checked the price lately, I would be surprised if it were near $100. Secondly, if you are saying you needed sighted assistance to use the Airport Express and you still couldn't get it to work but I manage to use it every day with no sight well enough said. Third, I happen to know some of the people on this list and know that it would be easy for them to use if only they weren't listening to the bogus information you were putting out.

You can find it at winamp.com if you look in the plugins section. Search on audioproc. I just installed the lite version and it works great.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
Hello Tom and David, There is a quick fix for the problem you're having. The problem can be solved by putting a booster buffer amplifier between the transmitter and computer or whatever the audio source is. Set the volume on the transmitter to the 11:00 position, and set the gain on the booster buffer amplifier to 50% which is, half way up. Set the volume on the booster buffer amplifier to the 9:00 position, and there you are! This is how I have mine sat up, I don't have any problems at all since I done that. Hope this helps. My best regards.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
Hmm, sounds a lot of trouble to go to when something like an Airport Express would probably cost you less and give you far clearer audio anyway but each to their own smile.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
You don't have to have a speaker here or speaker there in your words, you just connect the Airport express to a sound source, say the line in of a micro system or whatever and that's all there is to it, static free and noise free reception throughout your house and with Airfoil you can play any source you like to your Airport Express, computer or whatever anywhere.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
That's incorrect, Airfoil does its streaming through Wi-Fi and has nothing whatever to do with Blue Tooth Speakers. You do not need sighted assistance to set Airfoil up nor do you need sighted assistance to set up your Airport Express. I can't comment on bluetooth speaker systems as I've never used them but I certainly can comment on Airport Express and Airfoil as I own both and I also run Airfoil from both a Windows and Mac machine. Airfoil has had several updates since a year ago so that may have fixed the problem with JAWS crashing. the only thing you'll need to do is assign some of the custom controls labels so you know what you're doing and I assume with JAWS you don't need sighted assistance for that smile. The first custom control you come to is the Test button, press this to stream the hijacked audio to your Windows default sound output. Press the Tab key and you come to the next Custom control which is the Remote Stream button, this is the button you press to stream to another computer, Airport Express, Iphone or whatever. There are other buttons but I think you have the idea so no, Airfoil, Airport Express and Airfoil speakers have absolutely nothing whatever to do with bluetooth.

Speaking of transmitters and things I presently have a system where I have to use very long RCA to RCA cables connecting my Emagic sound card to my computer.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
High Tom, I agree with you on that. It is way to much trouble for anyone to go through, especially if you can't see. Also, the thing about ITunes, is you have to have a peace of software that's called JTunes. And that's just to make ITunes blind user friendly. But most people don't have $1000 to spend on a peace of software that limits you to one application. Where is the since in that? The radio transmitter, is a way cheaper way to get your tunes from your computer to anywhere you may want to take it around your home. I have two transmitters. One on my computer, the other one on my satellite dish receiver.

Hello André, You could use shielded audio cables. You are probably picking up the humming noise from your power cords. If that is the case, the shielded cables will remove that noise from the audio signal path. My best regards. John. PS.

RE: C-Crane Transmitter Question
John Thanx for this. I used ordinary cable used to make RCA to RCA commercial cables but I suppose that you are not supposed to run audio cables of this length anyway? The USB soundcard I am usin is the Imagic EMI 2/6. This was supposed to be a very high quality card in the early 2000s. But I do not know how it will compare with today's equipment.

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
You are going to have to tweak both the computer and the transmitter in order to get the optimum performance out of your transmitter without pushing the envelope. Just by making minor adjustments to the audio settings should keep you on track. If you hear the transmitter starting to distort, then that is an indication to back off the source a little. If you have to turn up the volume of your tuner that is OK. The analogy that I like to use is similar to taking water from a garden hose and trying to force it through a drinking straw. It won't work!!! A good source for low-power FM transmitters is http://www.fmamplifiers.com/ This company is in Canada, and the guy in question will build a transmitter to your specifications with switches and knobs that are easily identifiable for those without sight. These transmitters are a little pricey, but well worth the money. I recommended this site awhile back, and a number of blind peple ordered the low-power transmitter, and have nothing but praise for it. . . . PERFORMANCE FM-100MWS-LCD-E Digital PLL FM stereo transmitter ONLY $345 USD 12 Volt Power Supply Our New FM-100mW-LCD unit is ready to go and comes complete with a compact rubber duckie antenna and well regulated 12 volt power supply that works with 120 or 240 VAC sources. All you need to do is hook up your audio source to the RCA inputs on the back of the unit, and you are on the air! This NEW 100 milliwatt FM stereo transmitter will well out perform most of the low cost units on the market since it was carefully designed to pass even the very lowest audio frequencies down to 20 Hz and up to 15 KHz for the high frequencies. Believe me, this unit sounds just like the big stations! Excellent base and highs!!! Its highly accurate crystal reference and PLL circuitry ensure you will have a very stable signal at all times. The frequencies can easily be selected by pushing the recessed buttons using a paper clip wire. The frequency range is 88 to 108 MHz and the channel resolution is 100KHz. I should also mention that the stereo separation is excellent! We tested this unit against 4 other stereo unit that did not even come close. The unit is housed in a very nice extruded aluminum enclosure that shields the unit. No cheap plastic box used here! For more range a high gain antenna could be used and connected to the standard BNC connector on the back of the unit. If you are seriously looking for a high performance Stereo transmitter, this is definitely the one!

Re: C-Crane Transmitter Question
Hi! I've given up on transmitting FM around the house for the very reason which you've outlined, the transmitters just became too unreliable not to mention to many ocmputers and the like causing interference on the band - that may not be a problem for some people of course - so that's why I went the way of the Airport Express. just connect to a pair of speakers, a digital link to an amp, headphones or whatever and take the stream from your computer. Airport Express will work standard with Itunes or you can use Airfoil, this hijacks audio sources on your computer and streams them to the Airport express or any other computer using the Airfoil Speakers software which is free. You can use it as base station too! for all your wi-fi needs. http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/ Tom Kaufman wrote: Hello list: I have the C-Crane FM transmitter, which I use to hear what's on my computer when I'm not in the same room; I've noticed for a while now that..the volume that's coming through my radios isn't as loud as it should be; yet..if I make it louder by turning up the volume on the transmitter, then the light blinks, indicating that the volume is too loud; it also causes the sound on whatever radio I'm listening through to become a little distorted!
