H3 Monsoon Question
Does anyone know if the Monsoon 6 CD stereo is RDS enabled. Basically if you connect this new Ipod FM transmitter an RDS enabled radio will display what tracks are currently playing.
Here's the link:

its not RDS enabled. it would have been nice if it was. Thats actually a pretty good idea, but infortunately it wont work; well it will work you just wont get the name, artist displayed.

Re: H3 Monsoon Question
Don't think any of the stock radios have RDS. Sucks cause RDS is cool with new music and anyway I like knowing what's playing.

Re: H3 Monsoon Question
transmitters are crappy compared to a direct hook up. Get a direct hook up and when you turn up the volume, you'll hear every instrument in clairity and the bass won't feel like it's suppressed.

Re: H3 Monsoon Question
Logjam Electronics carries an adapter called Neucleus..yes, that's how it's spelled. All together, it costs about $185.00. It will dispalay the song and artist on the stereo, as well as allow you to control the I-Pod through the stereo. It does have a couple of quirks that could possibly be resolved with a little patience in the installation. I never could get the face plate off, so I had Car Toys install it. It makes an odd scratchy sound when you manually change the first song or two, but then it stops doing it. Sounds great, though!
