Yes, I can't get Yankees games on AM radio in Michigan.

Plus, I drive just far enough daily so that I can't pick up stations from home where I work and vice versa. Hitting the seek button and constantly programming in new presets is getting annoying.

is that what we're talking about?

the skyfi2 has a built in transmitter and it sucks balls, not to mention it's impossible to find an unused frequency between Detroit Metro, Lansing and Flint.
