A note on the unit Deborah describes:

This one appears to operate only on 88.1 mhz meaning if an area has a 
strong signal there, this may not be the answer.
Personally, I use the long-discontinued Arkon SF-120 Soundfeeder which 
tunes from around 87.5 mhz up to 108 and is powered by a single AA battery 
which lasts more than a week even if left on fcontinuously.  
For  my listening, I use a regular walkman style radio.  Note that 
different transmitters have different ranges so check the specs to get an 
idea if a given transmitter will cover the area you require.






Fear God and keep his commandments,
   for this is the duty of all mankind.
 For God will bring every deed into judgment,
   including every hidden thing,
   whether it is good or evil
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (NIV)
