By Michael Paradis "Diceman" (St. Louis, MO USA)On the FM transmitter box, push the middle button (Function) and then press and hold the "Mode" button (the right one) for approximately 10 seconds. When you let go you will see a menu for "Us" "Eu" "Ja", select the middle button, "Eu". Let the device sit for a few seconds until it goes back to the main screen, then tune your radio and the transmitter to 87.7 - 87.9! Now you can use the device on the frequencies that will rarely give you interference.

You must know the transmitting frequency of your radio. If it falls within beofang frequency parameters you should be able to use them

Check the LNB rotation. Also, I noticed that for some transponders, changing the LNB frequency gets the quality going.

Hey Pablo, I believe the frequencies are pre set at a certain range. I use 107.7 in my area. If it's not too inconvenient. Take off your car antenna. It will reduce the strength of the stations.

I also bought 3 and they are all on different frequencies (don't know the range). At this price, buy one and try it.

Hey. I really wish I could help you but I have no idea on an ACCURATE frequency range. I remember reading some stuff when I bought them, but that was only what the company or Amazon claimed about them. I don't know if there's a way to measure, but I don't have any tools for that kind of thing.

Just tune it to the "base" broadcast (non-HD) for that frequency, then hit the little up arrow on the left to scan to the next highest broadcast . If there's an HD2 for that station and it's in range, that'll do it. The HD broadcasts do tend to have less range, and for where I am on the eastern edge of the Twin Cities metro (western WI), my favorite station at 91.1 HD2 often requires some manipulation of antenna (what you have plugged into the headphone jack, often actually a line out to a stereo in my case) position to get the HD2 to come in, whereas the non-HD base broadcast comes in strong no matter how it's positioned.

In my experience that shouldn't be happening. I was always able to pick a station on the FM band, match it on the digital readout, and pipe my iPhone through the car speakers. On intuition rather than science, I picked low powered stations (88.7 or 90.2 for example) rather than powerhouses and had good fidelity.

What Mr. Faine says worked for me. No shut-offs and no interference from local radio stations. It's goofy, so here's a little more detail: Follow the instructions in the review section for this product to put it in International Mode and set preset 1 to the lowest frequency (87.7). Switch the unit back to U.S. mode. Tune your FM radio to 87.7 Press the preset button repeatedly on the unit until it says 107.9. *** the unit will actually broadcast on 87.7, not 107.9. *** it no longer shuts off

Check your manual. There is a setting for the tuning steps to be set. In some parts of the world the AM Broadcast band steps are 10 KHZ apart and other areas are 9 Khz. If you arein the USA it should be set for 10 Khz. There is also a filter setting that you might want to widen for better sounding AM. Does this help?

The zone 2 I am not setup yet, and 7.1 channel I don't know why I have out put only 5.1 or 5.2. I check the seting but still don't know how to get the out put for 7.1. I have 7 speaker and 2 subwoofer still try to setting up. I will let you know when I got it.Best RegardMinh

R. Montgomery is spot on. Just set an FM preset at whatever free frequency you end up with so you can EITHER use the built-in (rather tinny) speaker OR run it through your stereo speakers.

My understanding is that you should check what TV stations are using what frequencies in your area... these devices share the same frequecy bands. Go here (http://en-us.sennheiser.com/service-support-frequency-finder) and enter your city/zip.It will list all the frequencies used by TV stations in the band.Pick the range (A, B or G) that has the most open or least used/occupied frequencies.In my case that was the G range.

Good heavens! So many wrong answers. This radio can be programmed to receive on any frequency in the typical VHF/UHF land mobile bands. It cannot be used legally used to transmit on either FRS or GMRS frequencies because the radio is not Part 95 certified. There are no frequencies in this radio that can legally be used without a license. There are many business band frequencies that this can operate on legally, but it requires an FCC license, which is generally not difficult to obtain, but you do have to pay between $85 and $200, depending on how many radios you license. Now, these radios are being used every day illegally. Can you get away with it? Maybe. If you happen to pick a frequency with a licensed user or users already on it, you can expect they will file a complaint with the FCC. Depending on how much interference you cause, you may get a visit from a white van with lots of antennas. I suggest you Google the amount of fines you can be hit with. Contact a local land mobile radio dealer. They can help you with a license, and you won't have to worry about the guys in the white van.

I can't find mines but I can just tell you.Plug the transmitter into the your car outlet. Plus the other end to your apple device. Use the up/down button to search through channels (88.1-88.9 I think) Match that station you choose to the one on your car radio. Play your apple device.

I have checked and it only goes to 88.1. I have also noticed that with this I have had no problems at all with interferences even channels that have something coming in it will still play and the sound is very clear

I have exactly the same problem with my radio, which basically renders it USELESS in my area. They should warn customers before hand that this is the situation. Send it back for a refund if you can.
