Hi Linda, Don't be put off by the c-crane transmitter. It is not the volume that can be adjusted, it is the frequency range. Under normal conditions, the pre-set on the range will work fine, but it can be adjusted to increase the distance. I use an FM transmitter, to listen to music from the computer anywhere on my property. I purchased it from: http://www.canakit.net/Contents/Divisions/Div_52.asp UK-555 is the model I purchased. It may not be listed on the site, but you can contact them by phone. If you decide to purchase, one from them, explain your situation, and they will assemble one for you. I use mine everyday, and have no problems.

Does anyone have extra speakers for other rooms so they can hear their computer anywhere in the house? I would love that when I am listening to internet radio. We were reading about the c-crane transmitter, but I understand that you have to open it up in order to raise the volume because they are very cautious and don't want to invade other people's space or have you get complaints from neighbors that you are interfering with their radio stations. I really like the idea of being able to hear the internet radio through my stereo, but at the same time, I was also thinking how inconvenient it might be to have to find an open frequency. I also wanted a speaker to be completely portable, free from having to use outlets in case I wanted to take it out into the yard. Are speakers better or is it better to use radios to transmit the signal? I definitely want wireless, and even a radio is connected unless you want to use batteries, which I might not want to do. Would be interested in hearing about all your experiences. If you want to talk by phone, you can leave a very detailed voice message at 773-572-6206 by hitting pound as soon as you hear my voice.
