You'll have to try it. If it doesn't work, take it back. One brand may be
better than another. I didn't take the time to try other transmitters.

>>>>> Hi Tom,
>>>>> I am responding to your inquiry on the Blind Hams List.
>>>>> I don't have a VR Stream as of yet but plan to get one after the new
>>>>> year.
>>>>> I do have a suggestion regarding distributing the audio in your
>>>>> vehicle.
>>>>> There are various devices under FCC part15 that would fit your
>>>>> purposes.
>>>>> Part15 devices as I'm sure you know require no license and are
>>>>> confined to
>>>>> limited
>>>>> transmit range. They are available on the fm or am bands. The fm
>>>>> units are
>>>>> the most prevalent.
>>>>> I use a device that was obtained from one of the WallMart type stores
>>>>> by a
>>>>> friend. He bought a bunch of them for a project at his work. He
>>>>> needed to
>>>>> distribute
>>>>> broadcast audio in a heavily shielded office building. I bought one
>>>>> of his
>>>>> extra devices.
>>>>> They go under the name Monster and cost about $60. The "Monster"
>>>>> transmitter is about six inches long consisting of a tubular plastic
>>>>> housing
>>>>> with cables
>>>>> protruding out of either end. One cable terminates in a standard
>>>>> eighth
>>>>> inch stereo male jack while the other end terminates in a standard
>>>>> automotive
>>>>> cigarette lighter plug. All you would need to do is apply automotive
>>>>> power,
>>>>> plug in the Stream, select the frequency and you are good to go.
>>>>> As far as accessibility the Monster is blind friendly. The frequency
>>>>> is
>>>>> selected by pressing a button located at one end of the unit. The
>>>>> transmitter
>>>>> ranges throughout the educational portion of the fm band from 88.1
>>>>> through
>>>>> 91.9MHZ. The unit is digital and it is easy to find an empty
>>>>> frequency and
>>>>> zero in. The transmitter will retain its frequency settings even if
>>>>> power
>>>>> is removed.
>>>>> I use the transmitter to send audio from my computer around my house.
>>>>> It
>>>>> works extremely well and in my opinion it's well worth the price.
>>>>> I hope this helps. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
