Belkin Gruv-X?

Thanks kloh,

It's pretty clear that Belkin has rebadged Gen-Dyne's Gruv-X FM transmitter. I recall reading that Gen-Dyne recently went out of business so this is all makes sense now.

I'm just wondering why Belkin continues to market their TuneCast transmitter which only transmits on 4 channels (88.1, 88.3, 88.5 or 88.7Mhz) when the Gruv-X has the ability to transmit on ANY frequency between 88.1Mhz-107.9Mhz. Go figure.

Btw, the Belkin Gruv-X is up on their website:

I just got the new Belkin FM Transmitter. I live in Los Angeles so it's really tough to find a completely open station, but I've got to say this little thing did a great job on a number of stations. I found a number of stations with no interference. You can pick what station you want by .1 increments so no matter where you are you're bound to find something. For $40 and no hassle, it's pretty good product, especially considering you can use it anywhere. Of course the sound won't be CD quality, but the noise floor is nearly imperceptable on quiet sections, totally imperceptable on louder sections (not Metallica loud, just vocals and guitar say). Indoors, I was able to get great reception from the next room, through a wall. If your work computer doesn't have a firewire card and you don't want to keep repatching your computer speakers from the iPod to the soundcard and back, you can just get a cheap boombox and be in business.
