Circuit City has these 20 packs for $29.99.  The don't have sleeves, but you
get four plastic storage cases which hold five each.

After finally sorting through all it seemed half a zillion emails (last
time I'll subscribe to 3 lists at one time), I'm back on

This does sound like a great deal, especially at $1.75/each.  I've had a
10-pack of Memorex, that I haven't even used up yet, so I'm sure 20 would
last quite awhile.  Still, I do have a lot of archiving of cassettes to do
still.  I haven't had any problems with Memorex, though I've heard it's not
totally trustworthy... has anybody heard any facts to substantiate this
rumor?

Yesterday, I received the latest JR catalog and happened to find an ad
for 20 Memorex MD blanks for $34.99.  I believe that is the lowest

RE: MD: RF Modulators

[Paul Ratazzi]

I bought one of these (SoundFeeder SF100) with the same goal as you have.
It turned out to be a complete waste of money.  I ended up doing it right --
bought a MDX-C7900 car unit and LOVE it.

The problem that I observed, in addition to the drift problem, was that the
silly thing picked up interference from my MZ-R50 (as well as a portable CD
player that I tried with it). The interference was in the form of an
annoying buzz. I confirmed that this was definitely emanating from the MD
unit, not the car's ignition system. It happened even when the car was off
and only when the MD or CD disc was spinning.

If you can't go for a deck with a built-in MD player, I would suggest
getting a cassette adapter.  These work reasonably well and are definitely
much better than the SoundFeeder crap.

Good luck,
Paul

I've been reading that you can purchase just an RF modulator that will allow
a portable MD player to be used in a car.   Do these just plug
into the headphone jack like a cassette adapter would?

Can anyone recommend one that would work with my Sharp 702?

Thanks,
Brian
