FM Transmitter 2

Audio is distorted:

 

Try adjusting the Input Level Control on the side of the FM Transmitter 2 (see page 7, 

#3). If that doesn’t help, try adjusting the volume of your audio source. 

No Audio:
1).

 Verify that the power on the FM Transmitter 2, your audio source, and your 

     receiver are on.

2).

 Try adjusting the Input Level Control on the side of the FM Transmitter 2. If that 

     doesn’t help, try adjusting the volume of your audio source.

3).

 Check your cable and make sure it is connected to the right audio source (see 

     page 10).

4).

 Check your frequency and make sure you are tuned to the correct frequency.

If none of the above options work, try the FM Transmitter 2 on another device.

Can I use the FM Transmitter 2 as a repeater?

As a matter of fact, yes, you can broadcast from one radio to another radio and then 

rebroadcast from that radio to another radio. At some point, there is likely to be loss, 

but it does work. Keep in mind it is still line of site. Also, it will require multiple open 

frequencies for this to work.

Can I use it with a 12V plug (cigarette lighter) in my car?

Yes, but you will need one that has the ability to stepdown to the correct voltage. 

Is there any way to improve the range?

Yes, here are some things that can impact the range:

• The number of FM stations in the area.
• The quality of the FM receiver and the antenna – cars actually work quite well as

receivers.

• The number of walls the signal needs to travel through, every wall presents a

challenge to the line of site transmission so the more open the area with the fewer

obstructions, the better.

• The types of walls (e.g. wood, metal, stucco, etc).
