Terk FM Edge Dual-Drive Amplified FM Antenna Review

Terk FM Edge Dual-Drive Amplified FM Antenna
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I live in TX, about 80 miles from Austin and San Antonio. With a simple dipole antenna I can get about 3 reasonable stations on my Pioneer tuner. I thought I would try the Terk to see if a powered antenna would pull in a few more stations. Well, it didn't. In fact, some of the marginal stations that just weren't quite good enough with the dipole were worse or gone with the Terk. I fiddled with it over a few days, trying different times of the day, or different orientations ..... nothing helped. So I returned it for a refund. I think these units are overhyped. From what I've heard more people are disappointed than thrilled with the results. As always...."Your mileage may vary" but it was no good in my situation.

Motorola DC800 - Bluetooth wireless audio transmitter Review

Great little device. Works as receiver OR transmitter BOTH.
I really like this product.
The description of this device does not do it justice.
It is "bi-directional". It has both RCA in and out jacks on the back.
The device will pair with BT A2DP stereo profile compatible headphones for listening.
__OR__
It can also be paired with a laptop or BT enabled MP3 player/cell phone to RECEIVE stereo audio streams to your home or car stereo system.
I have tried both configurations and it works very well.
This unit can be powered by a USB jack whether that be an PC, Cigarette lighter adapter or in-dash head unit.
I purchased my from Radio Shack for $20.
