I just bought an MW FM transmitter that is battery powered. It allows one to
hook up the output of, say, a CD player to the headphone output, and
transmit the signal to select FM bands. This is fine for the most part, but
I'm wondering if there are units that have wall warts for power?

Go to C Crane's web site, which I believe is ccrane.com. They used to
have a unit that ran on battery or a wall wart.

Yes, they do. I just ordered it, $29.95, and am returning the other one. Thanks.

Get an appropriate wallwart and clip it across the
battery terminals. Remove the batteries, of course.

Ramsey has FM kits that are easy to build and, after I did three of them,
reliable. I think I did the FM-10C.

In San Diego, Gateway Electronics sells them off the shelf. If you have a
medium to large elex store nearby, inquire.

Thanks. I had checked with Ramsey and thought they were over priced, and my
days of building kits have long passed. Gateway sells the kits or has some
other FM xmitter?

snipped

No others that I know of.. Radio Shack has one, but it's low powered, if I
remember it. The Ramsey went about 100 feet off a legal wire (30 inches, I
think) and the RS only about 25 feet. I am in a metropolitan area, which is
a disadvantage to these little units -- hard as heck to find a clear spot!
Then too, receiver AFC pulls off to something else if you suffer a fade.
