I've heard horror stories about crappy FM transmitters that let you use your PM3 player etc. with your car stereo.

My rental only has a CD player, so my cassette adapter won't work, so I broke down and went looking for one.

Looking at some reviews, I was thinking Belikin TuneCast II as first choice, and maybe an iRock 400FM as a backup.

I found the Belkin on sale at Circuit city for $31.

This thing is cool, and works really well!

First, it will transmit anywhere from 88.1 to 107.9 and has a digital tuner to set the exact frequency with ease as well as having 4 memory locations you can put any frequency in. Most others have 1 or 4 fixed frequencies.

It also comes with a cigerette lighter adapter and it turns on and off automatically based on signal from your player.

Keeping the volume from the player lower and the tone settings flat appears to work best and then pump up the volume and tweek on the car stereo.

Sound is pretty good, but remember you are limited to FM frequency range which is about 15-15K

I would reccomend it to anybody who is looking for this type of device.

NOTE: Do not confuse this with the first Belkin TuneCast which alegedly bites. This is the TuneCast II!
