Good sound quality, poor reliability.

from Portland, OR
When I bought this transmitter, I took it out to the car and plugged it in to my iPod Nano (3rd generation). It worked, and the quality of sound was pretty decent for the price of the product. I used it for about a month, but then it began to act strangely. I live in Portland, Oregon. The radio dial is certainly not empty, but I should have been more than able to find an open station. The "SmartScan" feature doesn't work. Plain and simple. In fact, most of the time, it just sent me either to a station that was already in use, or to 107.9, which is the last frequency in the FM band. Eventually, the product ceased to work at all. I would plug it in, and it would work well for about 5 minutes. Then, it would slowly slip into static. I tried switching frequencies, but that didn't work either. The only solution seemed to be to unplug it for 24 hours and try again the next day. That made it work again, but only for another 5 minutes. Basically, I was left with a glorified iPod car charger that I couldn't play music with at all. Eventually, I sent it back to the manufacturer and bought a different product.
What's great about it: Easy to use, good price, good sound quality.
What's not so great: Reliability, SmartScan feature, LX/DX feature
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
