    Hi all,

    I'm trying to setup a wireless link from a phono source to transmit to a phono input (stereo and PC). The aim of the game is to have my turntables connected to both my computer and my stereo system without any pesky wires

    Can anyone suggest hardware to accomplish this? Or even where I could find info on building such a device?

    i picked up a set of TV Senders from argos that had phono outputs and inputs and just used them for stero sound from my PC to my amp.

    This seems to be the way to go. I wasn't even sure if such a gadget exists, but this transmitter/receiver combo should do the job. Quality of sound is another thing entirely, as is effective range, ability to deal with walls etc...

    If anyone knows how well this type of transmitter performs in reality could they post it here? Failing that I'll post a review once I source them and try them out.

    Video senders are good enough. Can be interfered with by microwaves and sometimes even being in close proximity to them eg standing in front of the tv.

    I was told by a chap in that Hifi store on the quays on the northside of the millenium bridge that these kind of FM transmitters are illegal in the republic, but you can get them in England and elsewhere

    Quite right and that's exactly why you shouldn't go to this site !!
