For any one who wants to go hands free at a very reasonable price..

I bought a Jupiter Jack kit for $10. You tune your radio to 99.3 or 10.3, plug the unit in you phone, and the car speakers broadcast your voice. Sounds great, and the reception on the other end is very good as well.

It already does hands free. Why would you need that?

 

If the car is a 2004 it does not have blue tooth

 

Really?

Well heck, I suppose so. Blue Tooth wasn't really around then, was it? At least not in widespread use.

Thanks.

 

Hi Katy,

Can you post a picture how you have it mounted.

 

Kaiserseal..
There are several options to either mount the phone . You can use any of your air vents..put it in your cup holder..sit your phone in you lap..

The mount clips in and removes easily.

For all of us drivers of 2002 to 2005 who do not have blue tooth.

The kit comes with seven different adapters that will fit various phones as well.

Apparently, not everyone agrees with your opinion of the quality.

Too bad, for $10 it would be a great cheap product, if it worked everywhere. I suspect that those who live in areas where the radio station dial is crowded, will have the least success.

 

Wow.. I thought Phoenix had allot of radio stations..seems to work just fine here, and had no issues at all. It was a good risk for the price though.

If it works for you in your area, you made a good purchase. I don't have them, so I couldn't say whether they work okay here or in my car. $10 is a cheap gamble. Sounds like you won that one!

 

Hi azkaty, just wonder'in, when you use your Jupiter Jack do you have to quickly tune your radio to one of it's frequencies before you answer the phone? This sounds like a PITA to me when you are listening to you fav tunes. It might be handy though as we will be heading to Phoenix next week for a 6 week get away, can't wait to get away from this dam snow and cold.

 

I have not tried to use the radio and the jack .. but there is a button to turn it on.. so perhaps you use one of your presets on the radio for the 99.3 or 101.3, and when a call comes in switch to that station, then turn on the jupiter jack.

I am going to play around with it. I will tell you this, when you turn the Jupiter jack off, I would turn the stereo volume down first. I about blasted my ears out for a second, until I could turn the sound down.
