Stereo FM transmitter?

Options
Hi all,

I have bought a few cheap FM transmitters through ebay but not found one that my radio can actually pick-up in stereo (such that the 'ST' indicator shows in the radio display). This is even the case for products claiming to have stereo output.

Has anyone managed to get one that works in stereo with their car radio? Or am I asking for too much?

Thanks!

    I believe that US stereo has different technical specifications from UK FM stereo, although the mono is comatible. So maybe you have US kit?

    Bought a Kensington one for my ipod some years ago, worked fine.
    Don't need it now as the Nissan has a USB port on the radio.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    Why not try the type that you hard-wire into the aerial lead?
