2007-03-06 Thread don bishop
I'm using Windows Vista and have windows media 11 and also winamp on the machine. I have all filetypes selected within winamp, but can't seem to get wmp to leave the mp3 files alone. I can't locate where to unselect all filetypes so they will automatically play in winamp instead. Maybe ms deli

Hi, Does anyone on the list have a recent Veronica 50 MW fm transmitter? I'm trying to figure out just which tuning tool I need in order to adjust the transmit frequency. Also, which screws do you remove to get the unit out of the case or at least get the bottom exposed. I use this transmitte

Just wondering if others have noticed more dropout when listening to baseball games on mlb gameday audio? We moved and I had to switch from earthlink dsl to sbcglobal dsl. Don't know if it's because I'm using it more now or if sbcglobal has a tighter bandwidth or what, but the games seem to dr

I don't see why not. The xmpcr is just like any other receiver and once it's activated, it acts like any receiver with the difference being that the channel and other functions are controled by the pc. I can't imagine that xm would somehow deactivate pcr units already purchased and in service.

Ray, We have an xm receiver, the skifi with the home stereo kit. It does work into the aux input of the stereo just fine. Also, I have a set of amplified speakers I got one time with a computer which has since gone the way of old computers. I've run the receiver through the amplified speaker

Hi Jim, On the bottom of the case there should be a small round hole located approximately in the middle of the bottom cover. My Veronica is a couple years old so the case design may have changed somewhat. Anyway, you should be able to access the frequency control with a small screwdriver thro

I have the xmpcr and also a Veronica fm transmitter. The xmpcr runs off of a usb port on your computer and connects to the sound card via the line input. Note that xmpcr does not connect to the internet in any way. It's just another xm receiver which is controlled by computer software for ch

ccrane transmitter

I have a question about the ccrane transmitter. I understand it has a couple of buttons on the top for changing frequency. Do these move the frequency up and down in increments, say 100 KHz? Or, do they change the frequency in smaller steps? Many receivers these days seem to scan the fm ban

Tim, What I did was to go to radioshack and buy a small amplifier for around $20 I think. It gave me a tremendous amount of gain, far more than I actually needed, so just set the volume control on it at a low level. The amp is powered by a 9-volt battery or you could get an AC adaptor. The

I'm not totally certain of this, but I seem to recall that you can buy a replacement antenna and it can be order through the xm online store. I think I saw it in accessories or something similar. You could also try calling xm customer service. Don On Fri, 21 May 2004 16:30:51 -0400, ANN wrot
