Partyof9 Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 I don't know why i did'nt get a manual with mine. But I did read thru the manual and it's just not clicking with me. How in the world do you get your audio from your pc to the edm? Last year i had no trouble with the WH transmitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOLI found one in an old camcorder case. They used to use these for making the audio connection to your TV from your camcorder. Otherwise you can get them cheap.

I think mine was emailed to me, which also serves as a way of confirming that your order is in process. Also allows you to read about the unit ahead of time.Setup is simple:Finish assembly (power plug and uP chip, if isn't already installed.)Find a clear freq to test on http://www.radio-locator.com, verify that freq is clear.Connect antenna (test antenna included)power the unit on and tune to clear freqprovide an audio sourcetune radio to test freq and enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Partyof9 Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 You guys rock! After an hour YES and hour of plugging and unplugging every cord I had (yeah a bunch) my husband said can't you just ask on the forum and within 10 minutes you guys solved my issue. Can't thank you all enough. I kept telling him maybe it's so simple we are too stupid to figure it out. LOL Well on to locate one this morning and built some MORE north poles, and hopefully finish the mini trees. You guys are an amazing group especially patience with everyone. I hope in years to come I can finally give back too. Have a wonderful sunday everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Hamilton Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Regarding that photo that "Surfing" posted. I suggest you buy a version of that adapter which is maybe 6 feet long. You should try to get the transmitters as far from the computer as you can. Lots of reasons for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, it would be pretty hard to even make such a 3" connection, unless you wanted the transmitter to be suspended dangling off the back of your PC, let alone the issues involved with potential interference. Just posted a pic off google that clearly showed all plugs so he would have an idea of what he was missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CKSedg Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 I bought my cord this year at Radio Shack. It is 6' long and cost $7.99, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
