From the Manufacturer
The Macally FM transmitter lets you enjoy your iPod music through any FM radio in your car or at home. The transmitter--which is compatible with the iPod, iPod Mini, MP3 players, CD players, and other audio playing device with a 3.5 mm headphone jack--works by tuning into your radio's frequency. And users have plenty of choices, as the device offers the full 88.1 to 107.9 MHz spectrum to work with when searching for the clearest channel. The transmitter even offers a quick-switch frequency button at 88.1, 94.1, 100.1, and 106.1 MHz. The unit is powered through the car's cigarette lighter while in the car or an included AC adapter at home. It also includes a cable for charging your iPod while driving, along with a tangle-free retractable audio cable and a frequency memory that saves the last setting once the power turns off. The transmitter is rounded by out by a large backlit LCD display with easy-to-read characters.

Customer Reviews

good deal for the price
i hear static from the station on certain channels if the radio volume is turned up very much. i can change the station and that will resolve it on most occassions. i think this is a great product for the price that i paid.

So far so good
I am writing this review with trepidation, because I'm afraid I'll hex my new FM transmitter. I live in the New York City metro area where we literally have no free radio frequencies. I picked up this transmitter on Friday (today is Monday) and it works well so far. I have been using it on 107.7. In addition to driving locally, I drove to Exit 5 on the NJ turnpike today and had excellent reception the entire way. I cannot vouch for sound quality, as I only listen to downloaded books. I don't know how it works for music. The other 2 transmitters I had (which each lasted about 6 months) did not have an on/off switch and I think putting it in and taking it out of the power source may have caused the contacts to weaken. I do like the on/off switch. I keep it plugged in all the time, and just shut it off. The one disadvantage is the size and the placement of my power source. Unfortunately it's not on the dash but on the console and the transmitter is partially blocking one of the cup holders. But this is a minor convenience compared to the quality of sound. I am reserving the right to check back in at some point in the future if the quality ends up failing!

Useless on all counts...
Macally PodFM Transmitter for iPod (White)
A totally useless piece of equipment. Even at full volume, could hardly hear the transmission. Tried 4 different radios, 2 of which having significant amplifiers, at various frequencies, all I managed to pick up was a very faint signal but lots of static.
Waste of money.
