Re: Veronica FM Transmitter frequency changing
Hi Jim. Snap! I got mine yesterday; magic, isn't it? Regarding your question. My brother, who has had one for a few months, advised me to tune my radio into an area between stations, then locate a screw hole on the base of the Veronica and turn the screw slowly, until the signal is picked up in the radio. Probably a job for two people if your radio or tuner is some distance from the transmitter. Best try a quiet song so you can tune it in closer, if you know what I mean. Get back if you experience problems. Incidentally, I ventured into my garden with a radio and managed to get about 100 feet before loosing the signal. The batteries in the radio are quite low so I'm going to repeat the exercise with new batteries. Best wishes. Andy from sunny Kilcreggan.

RE: Veronica FM Transmitter frequency changing
Hi Thanks for your tips. I have now managed to tune my unit into the frequency I wanted. It did take quite a bit of trial and error though. The adjustment of the screw is very sensitive. I also felt more comfortable powering off the unit each time I made an adjustment. I am only using it within my apartment at the moment and it sounds just fine without the external antenna fixed.

Hi Before messing around with an external Ariel why don't you remove the top of the box and inside you will find two pots, if you turn these clockwise it will boost the signal and give you more range and volume. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim O'Sullivan Sent: Thursday, November 18, 2004 3:46 AM To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: Veronica FM Transmitter frequency changing
Jim and Andy, We have our Veronica plugged into the sound card of my computer. We chose a cd we know well and used it to test the transmitter after we chose the quiet spot. The cd we chose was one of the Tim-Life 1970's set. we chose I Remember You by Frank Ifield (spelling)?. We first got a very quiet spot on the radio dial, then tuned for speaker separation. The song has good separation and bass response so we got an excellent signal which hasn't had to be adjusted in over 3 years. Sometimes the lead wires get covered by papers on my desk; so when it starts getting fuzzy I spread the leads out and that takes care of it. I bought the transmitter without the case and a friend mounted it for me. On Wed, 17 Nov 2004 15:57:25 -, you wrote: Hi Jim. Snap! I got mine yesterday; magic, isn't it? Regarding your question.
