Yikes! I think you're right. I can probably cut them off at the pass
this morning. They said it would be shipped today. I was looking at
the picture thinking that was the whole unit. I see some other units,
but they seem to be quite high priced compared the the battery
operated MW unit I had. Of course, Crane is usually above the general
price on everything.


Their transmitter may cost more, but is a cut above the 2 or 3 others I
have owned previously. It's also one of the only ones I've purchased
that actually seems to put out something in the range of legal power and
deviation, as opposed to the Radio Shack ones (no longer on the market)
that will go REAL wide. It's also nice to have a fully synthed unit as
opposed to many that just are on a 4 or so freqs and that's all.

I'm about to refuse delivery of the kit when it arrives, and I've ordered
the orphan. I think this should be a very helpful device. I cannot get a
distant station in SF, KGO, because I need a device in the bedroom where I
have the C. Crane radio that interferes with KGO. When I put it 30' away,
reception is fine. So I'll hook up the FM xmitter to the Crane and pick it
up on another radio in the bedroom. This will also help in an out building
where reception isn't so hot for a number of FM/AM stations.
