Here is a nice and simple FM transmitter from David at Volunteer Lab Rat that will let you blast your iPod tunes on your stereo. Full details are provided on the site.
“You know these smart FM transmitters you can use to stream music from your iPod into your car stereo? Here’s a nice little project that I’ve made and that you can build yourself for around 5$. It’s my homebuilt FM transmitter that I use for streaming music into my car stereo and the old-school stereo at the metal workshop at my university! The awesome thing is that the transmitter is based on only one transistor, and is really simple to construct.”

Haha! nice use of what looks to be a microchip sample box
…still hate ipods though

Very neat. It looks like you have built a single frequency voltage controlled oscillator. I like it!

Hi Rol3ert!
You’re absolutely right, it is a microchip sample box in which i recieved 2 PIC processors for making a 4-axis CNC controller.
NGinuity, Good guessed, thanks for the kind words

I thought I would be the first to guess it was a microchip box. oh well. Very nice project.

David,
Do you have a link to your CNC controller? That is something I am into as well.
March 26th, 2007
Solemn article. It make me lost in thoughts.

Hi NGinuity!
I’m still working on it! I’m building a 3 axis CNC milling machine ans a 4 axis CNC controller board. I can give you some specs on it though:
Parallel port based
4 axis control
Manual mode with axis control through 4 rotaty encoders/jog wheels
LCD display to show machine coordinates and to set up the controller
Capable of handling 24A to feed the motors.
The progress on the milling machine so far can be seen here:

When it’s all done, I’ll try to get it posted on hackedgadgets.
Best regards

Hey David. I have an email coming to you. Stand by

Ive just brought a 175.000mhz Microphone system with 2 Microphones one of the microphones sadly has seen better days but what i did was is use the insides to create a Audio Transmitter and being legal as its got an exempt frequency ive adapted it and remove the microphone part and soldered a Phono connection to it plugged it in my laptop and hey presto it works..
Regards..

Man! I just payed $20 for one at RaidoShack!

hey, nice. Im new at these electronic stuff. Hope you can help me out, I recently bought Scosche IPTRNSX FM transmitter, and was looking for help to modify it since I cant find the antenna. Any help will be great, Email: Reigntrs8@gmail.com

Good! All it needs now is a power input to sap the iPod’s instead of draining a 9volt. And maybe an antenna, which is easy enough.

I am decent with elecrtonics, can solder, etc.
But i dont understand which parts to get and what the abbreviations, such as “C4 C5″ etc are
And i am guessing the are capacitors?
But is there a specific type of (Capacitors, transistors, ets) i need to get?

Hi Imran,
Click on the link above, then click on the image on the project page to open the project zip file. One of the PDF images within there have component values listed. Yes C indicates a capacitor and R indicates a resistor.
August 25th, 2008
Well
Im not finding it
I have 2 pdfs i can use
1 is fmtrans_withparts
and other is fmtrans_noparts or something
then there are 2 under mac folder that i cannot open
Thanks for help so far, and thanks for anymore help yo can give
August 25th, 2008
Have a look at the one that is listed with parts. Beside each component the value of the part is listed.
