$14.97 Wireless A/V Sender

[hwangste]

I was at my local Radio Shack today and found one of those 2.4 GHz wireless audio and video senders on clearance for $14.97. It comes with the sender unit, receiver unit, AC adapters, and a bunch of cables. This is pretty much like the ones that X-10 sells. I don't know if it's local or not. It doesn't seem to turn up on the website (except for technical documentation). Be careful with these if you have an 802.11b network. The one I got from X-10 a while back doesn't seem to have a problem coexisting with my network, but I've heard plenty of other people who have had problems.

Is it local only? The Radio Shack website lists it at 99.99.

Can anyone confirm this? I need something like this to have an additional TV hooked up to my satellite dish (nobody would ever watch both at the same time, just would be able to watch TV in both places).

Really hot deal especially if its national!

In case it helps anybody who's looking for this item, the model number is 15-1971. The clearance tag that was on it listed the original price as $99.99.

Nice post hwangste.
Does anyone have experience with this paticular sender/reciever? I'll be checking this out locally tomorrow.

I have one, works great. They have a Sr and Jr version, probably the Jr.

Just wanted to put up a heads-up (not a thread crap - this is a great deal otherwise) -- if you're running either an 802.11b wireless LAN, or a 2.4GHz cordless phone, keep in mind they'll both interfere with this, and vice-versa.

Otherwise - for $14.97, you'd get one hell of a transport between source and television.
