After reading about these transmitters, I made sure I purchased one I could program. I live in Los Angeles and some other reviewers had problems in large metropolitan areas. I can program 10 presets into this. I've programmed 2 and so far have only used one. I have a 2006 infiniti with a CD player and no line in. I have an aux power output for devices in the center armrest console. I've used this anticipating that the device "eats" batteries quickly. (Another common complaint with these units.) The reception is good and strong (maybe because my antenna is on the inside of the back windshield.)

Anyway no major problems. The only reason I don't give this 5 stars is that it didn't come with instructions how to program and although the sound is clean and consistent, it seems to lack the crystal clear highs I get when I use the cassette adapter in my other vehicle.

I got the product from a friend who knows that our family takes a lot of long road trips. Hers was similar - not the same - and she loved it. We took it out of the box, and there were no instructions. Strike one. After fooling with it for a bit, we figured out how to get it to transmit. Never did figure out how to get the temp. gauge to go from Celcius to Fahrenheit...though why you'd need that on an mp3 transmitter I don't know. Got it working - sounded great! We were on a road trip, and all three of us had brought our portables! YAY! And then, 1/4 of the way through our trip, it just suddenly died. It wasn't the battery as we had it plugged into the charger. But we tried to get the battery section to work, too. Nothing. Strangely, it showed it was still transmitting, and the clock and temp. were still functioning, so it was getting power. Numerous tries over several days, to no avail. Spend the extra $[...] on one that you know won't crap out in 1/2 hour.

I bought one these in Big Lots for $5.00, so I was like if it doesn't work oh well. Man this thing is magic, any station, it works- no lie. I'm trippin cause I bought one of those griffin fm transmitters from Wal-Mart for $50.00, and it's straight garbage. Trust me I'm a trucker and inside a truck cab is all noise, but this "radio genie" is loud and clear to me. If it breaks tomorrow I've gotten my money's worth.
