I bought an iWave FM transmitter and it says to select the frequency 87.5 on my radio but I could not find this radio station it starts with 87.7 and could not make it play my mp3....how can I solve this?

What's the make & model of the radio?
Most DAB/FM radios work from the same antenna, so if you receive FM stations, you should receive DAB stations in your area.
It should be noted that DAB transmitters work on lower power than conventional FM transmitters, and so you may be in a weak reception area (for DAB). It should also be noted that DAB uses different frequencies than regular FM stations and household appliances such as laptops,WiFi, microwave ovens, etc can affect DAb reception.

You don't need a usb port for mp3 playback, simply burn some mp3 files to a cd - not like an audio cd but a data cd (drag and, drop and burn the same way you would burn pitures to a disk) you will find that you can fit 5-10 whole albums on one disk.
Enjoy & good luck.

You can select any station you want. On the 'on/off' button on the left side do a short press of that key to get the choice of frequencies. Find a good frequency with no interference (hard to do in a big town with a lot of stations). When you find one you like then press 'set' key and m1 (or m2 or m3) simultaneously to save that frequency. now you should be able to press the m1 key to get that saved frequency back.

Car cradle works "wirelessly" with Car Radio (inherent design of unit). Place Unit in Cradle; connect Cradle to Auto Power Source, and SkyFi3 should power on. Press Menu to Get FM Radio station channels; select a lower station Channel Frequency i.e. 88.3 or any vacant channel number and the signal should transfer to your Radio speakers automatically. You can change Station frequencies as often as you need to do so--for example if traveling through different broadcast areas, some channels frequencies are clearer than others. Good luck.

Hello,

Yes, You will need to purchase a device called an FM transmitter, it plugs into the headphone jack and transmits the sound to your FM radio. The transmitter will have station settings, you just find a radio frequency that does not have a station in your area, set the transmitter to that and tune your radio to the same frequency. You can get the transmitters from Walmart electronics dept, Target, Sears, Amazon.com, Radio Shack and most other electronics retailers. The transmitters run about $12-20 and can be battery powered or plug into your car power outlet. Go to google.com and do a search for "MP3 FM transmitter" and you will see what they look like.

I hope this helps, if so please rate our solution.

This is a device that "Sends" FM stereo & Transmitts Radio waves, and sends sounds/music speech etc, over the airwaves to a suitable reciever an the same "Channel" You can hook up say your Ipod to it and say tune your Car radio to the "Station" it sends on and listen to ya compilations, in the car, thru the car stero system. The radio just "Sees" it as another strong station.

I didn't think this unit had an included FM transmitter - so I looked around for more info, and everything I've found indicates it does not.

It will however play audio via the built-in speaker or headphone jack. Use of a third party FM transmitter will allow playing audio (navigation, alerts, MP3 or audio books) when connected to the headphone jack and with both the FM transmitter and FM radio set to the same frequency.

The FM transmitter will work best when set to a frequency that is unused and has the least amount of interference from adjacent stations. Check by tuning the car radio across the FM band and note frequencies that have those qualities. Leave the radio on one of the clear frequencies and set the FM transmitter to the same displayed on the radio. You should try several to find the one that works best. Also, be aware that as you travel, you may enter an area where that frequency (or one close by) is in use by a broadcaster. This will require repeating the process as needed to reduce interference.

Hi. Try a "soft reset." With the RoadTrip and your iPod both on and connected to each other, hold down the Menu button and the center select button for 5-10 seconds until you see an apple on the iPod. Then you can let go and wait for the iPod to restart. Once it's restarted, try playing music and choose a static-only station like you did before. This resets communication between the 2 devices and should fix the problem. Good luck!

At the main menu press settings
press FM Transmitter
Turn transmitter on by pressing off. Will change to On
Press the Frequency button. Than change the frequency to one that doesnt have a radio station.
All sounds from the GPS will now be transmitted to the frequency set. Make sure your FM radio is set to the same frequency.

With my one vehicle this option does not work very well & is full of static because my radio entenna is at the rear of the car. The GPS only transmits a couple of feet.

I need to know wish to know on what raadio station I have to set up my radio so then I could connect my i-pod
