I like the fact the frequency can be changed using the ipod display.
Yes there can be static during playback, but that is due to using an already occupied frequencies.
I found I got the best results when I changed the region to Japan and used used 88.1.
I would definitely recommend it, I have used 2 other transmitters and this looks like the final one.
Hope that helps.
I bought one of these from circuit city for $99. I live in St. Pete/Tampa area. The auto station find was not very effective. I found clearer ones by manually searching. When it’s connected to your ipod, it definetly slows down the menus. The buttons on the iCarPlay 200 are also very unresponsive. I would press the change station button, nothing happened, then press it again, then it would jump twice. So my advice is have patience when navigating the iCarPlay’s menus. Sometimes I could get it to work with an acceptable amount of static, but then the unit would randomly stop working, and i get blasted with noise from my radio being cranked up. You cannot adjust the volume on the iCarPlay, only on your radio. I returned the unit, and I am in the process of getting a pioneer head unit with a built in auxillery input on the front panel. I cannot recommend this unit. It also looks cheap for the price point. It looks like it should cost about $25 dollars. One postive note, it does charge the Ipod fairly quickly. Also in my wifes car, where she a factory stereo the static wasn’t quite as annoying. I have amplified tweeters which pick up everything, including static. I also thought that putting the unit closer to the stereo would improve the sound, oddly it doesn’t seem to make a difference. You could also look at one of the wired ipod adapters such as the PIONEER CD-IB100 iPod Adapter.
I bought this at CompUSA. I live in rural Vermont. The AutoSearch works fairly well. The static when connected is acceptable. A big problem is that suddenly you’ll get blasted by static when the FM signal is interfered with. I’m bringing it back for refund. I agree with the previous reviewer – it’s NOT worth it. My wife’s old 8 station Monster works much better.
I’m going to try going back to my old Belkin charge which connects to a cassette.
