Hello Lois and list: I, too, am using the Ccrane Transmitter (am reasonably
sure it's the same model you're using_) have had mine since 2004 and works
well! But about that deal where you could peal the thing off and adjust the
screw: if I'm understanding correctly, the newer transmitters don't allow
you to do that anymore! When I first got mine, it didn't quite have the
power I wanted it to have! It was fine for just listening to the stereo in
this little room where the computer is! But if I wanted to hear what was
going on through the radio I have in the kitchen (I could hear it; it just
wouldn't be in stereo) aw but I got a friend of mine to turn that screw
and..vala! If anyone knows if they make these units in this same way,
please feel free to jump on here and let us know? As I said, have had this
one since 04, so it's conceivable that mine could quit any day in the future
(hope not) but if it does, would be nice to know that I could replace it
with one that would work for me just as well (or..um..I _could_ make it work
just as well?

I have been using a C crane fm transmitter for ten or eleven years now and
find it good for what you intend it for. I plug the output into the cable
coming from the soundcard of my PC and tune the stereo across the room to
the same frequency as I tune the transmitter. I can hear it anywhere in
the house. On the back of the unit, there is a piece of light cardboard
stuck over a little panel with a tiny screw adjustment with which you can
increase the power some. I have had no difficulty with this transmitter.

Subject: FM transmitters
Hi all,
I posted the following yesterday, but it hasn't come up on the list, so
perhaps for whatever reason it didn't get through. There
has been mention recently on the list of high end transmitters with
multiple inputs, but I am wanting something very basic which
will just do what I want. My original message follows.
I am looking at getting a small FM transmitter which will transmit the
output from a computer headphone jack to an FM radio
approximately 30 to 40 feet away.
I did a Google search and found the C. Crane FM Transmitter 2 which
appears to do what I want, but I have heard in the past that the
C. Crane transmitters are a little lacking in output power. Does anyone
have one of these units and will it operate effectively
over the required distance.
Alternatively, can anyone suggest an equivalent product which is better.
Thanks,
Barry Chapman
