Using the TX3 with an FM Receiver
One of the most unique features of the TX3 is its ability to transmit your guitar signal via wireless signal
sent to any FM receiver, such as your car or home stereo system, or a boom box. To transmit from the
TX3 to an FM receiver, you'll need to match the frequency of the FM receiver with the frequency on
which the TX3 is transmitting. The TX3 has a transmission range of approximately 30 feet (10 meters)
but will work best within 5 to 15 feet of your FM receiver. Also, set your receiver's volume to zero, then
turn up after you've powered up both the receiver and the TX3.
To determine which frequency the TX3 is transmitting on, click the left "Wing" button once, until the
"FM-SET" LED lights up. If the main LED display reads 8.9, the TX3 is transmitting on FM frequency
88.9. Set your FM receiver to this frequency and you'll hear your guitar. You can change this frequency
if you desire. For more information on the FM transmission frequency, see Section Three – Edit Mode,
and the passage titled "FM-SET."

Playing your guitar on the radio is what it's all about, and the TX3 is all you need! The FM transmitter
built into the TX3 allows you to play your guitar over any FM radio receiver: your boom box, your car
stereo, or your home entertainment center. You'll be amazed at the quality of sound you'll hear, and
you'll love the freedom of playing your guitar through your car stereo on your lunch break, or while
watching the sun set down at the beach!
To transmit your guitar signal to your FM receiver, you'll first need to match the frequency of the FM
receiver with the frequency being transmitted by the TX3. To find which frequency your TX3 is
transmitting on, press the left "wing" button once, or until the small LED lights up near the "FM-SET"
tab.
If the main LED display reads "8.9" your TX3 is transmitting on FM frequency 88.9. Set your FM
receiver to this frequency and you'll hear your guitar.
If you encounter interference from a powerful radio station, or if the guitar signal you hear from your
FM receiver's speakers isn't simply awesome, you can change the transmission frequency by simply
pressing the down "bean" button. Pressing this button will allow you to scroll down through several
other optional transmission frequencies.
The TX3 can transmit on any of the following frequencies: 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7, and 88.9.
You can scroll through these frequencies using the up and down bean buttons, then set your FM receiver
accordingly.
The TX3 has a transmission range of approximately 50 feet. Of course you'll probably get the best sound
when positioned closer to your FM receiver.
