106.1

some wierd stuff goes on on this station. I use it for XM, but sometimes gets interrupted with a blend of local SA stations on it, Big Dog 106 in Beaumont, Tx, spanish music, and sometimes I can pick up other people's FM transmitters in their cars. I picked up some german metal on there once, thinking that we got a new hard rock/metal station, only to find out it was the guy behind me. I didn't think consumer FM transmitters could be that powerful. Has anyone picked up other people's FM transmitters while driving?
 
Yep, FM transmitters can go pretty far sometimes, from a few feet to 20-50 feet depending on what kind of transmitter somebody has. I picked up someone's transmitter for almost 100feet away in my truck it was set at 87.9mhz I also picked up someone's xm on 91.1 and it went for about 30 feet when he sped away. But it all depends on the equipment they use.
 
seems like it. I think some of the more expensive transmitters made specially for iPod are pretty powerful. When I bought my first Belkin transmitter, the one that only lets you pick four frequencies, was awful. Isn't there supposed to be regulations on the power of transmitters?
 
I think (dont know for sure) but diffrent transmitters have diffrent rules of the FCC I'm not sure though.
