Worked like a charm

"I bought this on a Friday and used it on a long car trip. While sitting in the driveway, I let it scan, and tuned the frequency it suggested. It worked great. Very clean sound from the MP3 player. As we started driving, it got some static in it, so we just scanned again, and changed to what it suggested and used that frequency the entire trip.

Not even worth the sale price.

"It was a great deal on Black Friday at [$], however it has a very weak signal. It took 5 full minutes of scanning for it to pick up a station. I had to turn my Zune all the way up to hear it, and then there was still interference from the station I was on.

Not an effective solution

★☆☆☆☆

"I wanted this product to work, but it didn't. The signal is very weak. Like other reviewers, I had to turn my player's and radio's volume all the way up to get sound. My car's antenna is on the back window, which may make a difference as the FM range is limited. "

"You have to turn up the volume on you MP3 player to the loudest setting, to even hear anything. Also going through every available channel on my stereo, there was grainy distortion. Might work better if you add an FM booster. "
