A Button Press Away from Great Sound
By pushing a single button, Belkin's ClearScan technology will automatically scan to find the best FM frequency so that you can enjoy the music on your iPod static-free in your car. With an improved FM transmission, the sound is better than before. And the large LED tells you at exactly what frequency the music is being broadcast.

Once you find a clear station, you can set it to one of two presets on the TuneBase. This is especially useful around your local area and areas that you frequent, because you can quickly return to these stations at the touch of a button.

The TuneBase also has a line-out feature that lets you use it with car-stereo inputs or cassette adapters. The built-in PRO setting optimizes the audio and provides a volume boost for the best sound possible.

Built-in Charger and Stand Works with All Docking iPods An integrated auto charger plugs into the cigarette lighter so you needn't worry about running out of power while on a road trip. With a flexible steel-neck mount and a swivel cradle, you can position the iPod for optimal viewing and accessibility. The antenna is integrated into the neck for a clean look. Multiple cradles are included for compatibility with all docking iPods.

The Belkin TuneBase FM with ClearScan is backed by a 3-year warranty.




Enjoy the music on your iPod while on the road.

3 out of 5 stars Funciona pero pudo ser mejor!!!   October 13, 2008
Alfredo Ruiz (Mexico)
Hay que decir que lo sigo usando y funciona. Sin embargo la pantalla ya no se ve bien y la recepcion no es de las mejores. Mejor el monster cable.


2 out of 5 stars Not very compatible or strong   October 12, 2008
T. Fortson (Douglasville, GA)
I bought this product from Wal-mart about a month or so ago and it was working fine. After about a week I realized that there was tons of static in the music depending on where I was driving even if on the 'best' station to be used.

I just dealt with it for the time being but....everything I tried to get the product out of my cigarette lighter area it seemed to be stuck and i actually had to pull it out...when I first got the product this was not an issue at all.

Today about a month or so later I took the player out as usual and the entire bottom part with the fuse and whatever else broke off and is currently lodged in my car.

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone!!! I loved this product for a long time and was about to buy it as a gift for another friend but never again...once you put the product in your car you have to leave it and never take it out I guess but if you're paying a good hundred for this or whatever that should not be the case.

THIS PRODUCT IS NOT TRULY PORTABLE OR RELIABLE OR COMPATIBLE WITH ALL CARS FOR THAT MATTER...LEAVE THIS WHERE IT'S AT AND DON'T BUY.

3 out of 5 stars Works well   October 1, 2008
Andrew (New York)
Even though it does not explicitly say that it works with iPhone 3G, it does. The iPhone gives you a message saying it's not designed to work for it, just cancel out of the message and it will work. Charges it and plays music over FM transmitter. Audio quality is good, at times cell interference does happen, but not frequently. As of yet (10/01/08) it does not include adapters that are custom fit to the iPhone, so that is something that you hvae to work around.


3 out of 5 stars Not So Clear ClearScan   September 25, 2008
Paul B. Sheffield
The Belkin Tunebase FM with ClearScan is unlikely to satisfy even a somewhat discriminating user. The auto scan is not reliable, frequently selecting frequencies that are in use by broadcasters. Further, the ability to eliminate noise needs improvement. On the plus side, the fit is snug in the lighter socket and the neck is flexible, but sturdy, allowing for easy movement of the iPod to a position that will hold steady.
