is this new fm transmitter similar to the cd players you can buy in halfords (for example) in the uk so that you can have a cd player in your car linked to the car radio via the fm link. this type of thing is not illigal they have been using this system for years or am i mistaken.

Unfortunately you are mistaken. This actually broadcasts FM signals through the airwaves. The things you are thinking of use the FM connector from the aerial socket on the bacl of the unit - it doesn't actually broadcast - just uses the cable.

What they really need to bring out is a fm transmitter and charger in one for your car. since there is only one fast port it would be nice to keep the battery charging while you can listen to the tunes as well.

EDIT: Just realised the mmr-60 is what Masseur posted at the start of tis thread!! I'd forgotten where this thread started. Note that in the pics in my link below, there is a fastport on the bottom of the fm transmitter

Below, what I posted before editing:

There is an fm transmitter made by SE (mmr-60) that you can plug a charger into the base of. Check it out:

there is also a car charger that you can plug a handsfree into (as well as the phone).

This is really interesting.

I never had an opportunity to feddle with the transmeters.

What happens is I use the range thats already allocated to some radio station ?

I thinking it would be great if it overrides cos I might give a fake broadcast.


I hope it eventually gets here.

if you tune it to an existing station, you will probably get a bit of both signals. Also the range is very short 30ft or so, so you can't transmit the signal very far. Even if you could, somehow I don't think the power of such a small transmitter would have a hope of overpowering a local radio station

Bad news for you boys & girls in the UK if you think you can get away with using an FM transmitter in your car ... From Jan 2006 all new Police motorcycles will have a FM signal detector on the bike as standard.

Good news is that we've testing a digital transmitter and its NOT illegal. Yet. Well, not until the EU and/or Blair'n'the boys decide to get all PC over digital too...

Bad news is of course you'll need a digital radio in your car.

Who cares. I'm buying one.

Who needs an expensive car stereo anymore ? just carry this thing around with you and lower the risk of your car being broken into simply to nick the stereo.

December release huh ? this is on my Christmas wish list, even if i have to get it imported from abroad.

It's a pretty stupid law to make a 30ft range fm transmitter illegal.

It's 100% legal in Australia. And we still have a high standard of legislation controlling radio interference.

It's completely unnecessary to make illegal such measly transmitters.
