Belkin F8Z176-P iPod Tunebase FM Transmitter II

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
This is the third FM based ipod player I owned, and it is a significant improvement in the design, functionality, and performance. Other than the Clearscan which was disappointing I found it to be an excellent product for the greater DC area. - Haven't tested it elsewhere yet, but if it works in a metro area it would probably work even better outside.The good:1.Sturdy structure - plug has a tightening ring that keeps the plug firm in the socket (so it doesn't move even when driving on a rough road or sharply turning). 2.Two pre-set buttons for FM frequencies on the device are useful when more than one is required in a long trip. 3. Sound quality much better than earlier models - clear and loud thanks to an enhancement feature with three optional levels plus mono for areas where no clear frequency is available. 4. works better with thin/small units (not the old classic ipod).The bad: 1."Clearsacn" feature is useless. Just scans for unused frequencies, but does not search for the optimal one.
