    Griffin RoadTrip FM Transmitter with SmartScan for iPod

    • It is also horrible at finding the best radio station to use.
    • but once you find a good station it is not bad for the most part.
    • The transmitter easily picks the three clearest stations when you press the smartscan button and saves them into three pre-set slots
    • Takes the hassle out of manually scanning for a free station.
    • Doesn't always pick up a good station, so he ends up switching the channel 4 or 5 times to get one with good reception
    • (I'm having a much harder time finding a usable station than I had with the old one - it seems like this one is picking up stations that the old one couldn't, which makes the sound quality terrible).
    • I have 2 stations that I toggle between but on any given day, one of them works nearly perfectly.
    • I'd lose a station every few blocks, and when I was able to minimize the static, the music sounded like it was playing on an AM station (tinny, no bass, mainly drums and vocals, etc.)
    • Sometimes one is better than the other, but it is great not to have to manually search for another available station
    • However, the FM transmitter is under powered and the Smartscan didn't find good stations for me.
    • It does pick out 3 stations during the scan but likes to keep going to the same stations.
    • I don't know why it didn't blow a
