Default USB Radio Transmitter

Does anyone know of a Kaiser compatable radio transmitter for the Kaiser so I can use it like an itrip and play my tunes from my kaiser in my car over a radio frequency?

Any old usb/headphone splitter will allow you to do this, as the FM transmitter element simply plugs into the 3.5mm headphone jack - FM transmitters are, notoriously, pants though but if its your only option, I would suggest getting your own splitter and then getting a different FM transmitter that has digital tuning, so you can select any frequency, and not be limited to 4.

Something like this:

You know what I am looking for... I would love to see a Bluetooth FM Transmitter. Then you can just enter your car, and wirelessly play your music through your phone. Anyone know if these even exist? I did a brief google search but it looked like everything was either a car kit for hands free talking or just people wishing they had one kind of like me.

Thumbs up Universal Belkin adapter.

Personally I use the belkin 3.5 inch universal FM transmitter.
the audio quality isnt grand but its very passable.

I've been using that for my PSP and zune for a while now and i'll be using it
with my kaiser as soon as I get my miniUSB to 3.5 adapter in the mail.
I recomend it.

Question Say that again...

Hi...

FAO Captainsensible/JPHCCFC or others with experience on this...


I'm wanting to do the same thing but have absolutely no technical knowledge about this kind of thing.

I have a Mk4 VW Golf with the standard VW fit, quad speakers radio.

What products would I need to buy to get my Kaiser playing through the car speakers, and, how would I need to set it up.

Links to the products and detailed advice in plain English welcomed & much appreciated.

TIA.

Regards,

Mark.

Another option would be this, http://www.techlore.com/article/1024...-a-Car-Stereo/.
I think the quality is better than the FM transmitter.
Please use search before posting your question.
Be kind to the devs! Without them, XDA is just a bunch of jerks bickering.

I use an iTech-clip connected to a cassete player adapter normally for a walkman. Gives me BT stereo music and when clipped to the sunvisor acts as a hands-free automatically cutting off the music when a call comes in.
