What are FM Transmitters?
Tuesday, June 17th, 2008
FM Transmitters are an increasingly popular way of listening to your choice of music on your car stereo or at home.

Essentially these devices are simple, small devices that plug into the headphone socket on your mobile phone, CD or MP3 Player. They send the music using a short range FM signal, all you need to do then is tune your radio into the same frequency as the transmitter is sending and hey presto, your music plays through your home or car stereo. Since their legalisation in 2006, FM Transmitters have developed considerably and broadcasting music from an MP3 player to your stereo is now just a small part of what they can do. |

FM Transmitters are now used in some Bluetooth Simple Car Kits. Where as a conventional Bluetooth Simple Car Kit would transfer audio from a telephone call to a loud speaker, the addition of a FM Transmitter allows the audio quality to be greatly improved by broadcasting it to your car stereo speakers. |

The addition of Bluetooth to FM Transmitters has opened up even more opportunities for in-car entertainment. As more and more phones become MP3 enabled and are able to stream stereo music using Bluetooth, a range of multimedia Simple Car Kits has started to emerge. These kits allow music to be sent via Bluetooth from your phone to the kits, and then to your car stereo using the FM Transmitter. As soon as a call comes in, your music is paused and the call audio is played through your car stereo. The more advanced kits will even display Caller ID and song information on the display of your stereo. |
| One of the best things about these kits is that they are easy to install and set up. There are no wires, and usually plug in to your cigarette lighter charger or clip onto your sun visor. All you have to do is set the frequency and tune in your stereo! | |
