Audio senders?

smellofdiesel · 24-06-2007, 22:32

I have been asked by a friend (she knows I like playing with 'techy' things) to investigate how she can listen to the radio on her satellite box in other parts of the house/garden?
In the past I'm sure I've seen or heard about devices that plug in the phono (RCA) sockets of a sat receiver that has an rf output on the FM band. I know such devices are now available to play iPod and MP3 players on car radios, but what about something more suitable for home use?
I also know that such things as video senders are available, but what about a radio one?
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks - Tim

Try looking for "Sky Gnome", it does exactly what she wants - and probably far better than she imagined!.

Thanks Nigel - I have heard of a 'Sky Gnome' but know nothing else about them, so I will have a look around - again thenks.

Right, I've had a look at the Sky Gnome - on the net anyway - it might do the job, but has anybody got any other ideas?
