No, terrible. I receive no reception at all, I tried new batteries and even emailed Stanley complaining about product.

I use it in the shop for noisy grinding, and for lawn mowing. Very happy with the loud noise suppression. I don't have to lift an ear muff or fiddle with the volume control for either use. The antenna seems robust, but I'd be concerned in the close confines of the stadium. The tuner "holds" the radio station well; I had problems with the "no-antenna" Radio Shack model this replaced. For the loud game, I suspect ear plugs would be my choice -cheap, easy to remove, less hassle.

Yes. I wear them to mow the lawn and I don't hear a thing but what's on my headphones. Great noise cancelling headphones.

Yes, I use it while mowing the lawn. It has great sound and reduces background noise.

Yes, I believe it would serve that purpose well. It will drown out the sounds of machinery, but again, the AM signal strength may be lacking in volume.

Hello, I use the mic to video football games on the sidelines. I always had the mic on but tried with it in normal position and extended range. I can pick up a lot more action (voices of players and coaches) in the extended mode. It does make a difference. I never turned it off before.

I like to listen to NFL / MLB on the radio, but typically live game broadcasts are not permitted to be broadcast on the internet. So I may find myself turning off the Squeezebox and turning on the old AM/FM to listen to the NFL. Not a deal breaker by any means, just an annoyance.(I know if I paid for Sirius I could listen to all the NFL games, but that's an expensive option. I also have a little Sangean AM-FM I can plug into the Boom.)

Actually, I'd say it doesn't do that great of a job blocking outside noise. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it a 4. Mostly it only lets louder noises in, but when nothing is going on ingame or if there is no music, you can hear others talking quite clearly. That being said, it runs pretty much silent when on someone's head. When my ears get a bit achy, I'll set them on the table next to me, and I can listen to whatever pretty easily. HOWEVER, as soon as it is on a person's head, nobody but the wearer (or people really really close, when at high volumes) can hear the content. Also, in case you wanted to know, the directional mic does a great job at reducing accidental noise traffic transmission. Hop this all helps.

yup if it is only as small as football field , I give you a tip set it on low output set the frequency to 87.3 so there is no signal crash with other local radio , and I use Coby CX90 radio as a receiver it works fine , hopefully it help.

Runs off car battery. Does have an aux out for headphone use and I assume as long as the antenna has a clear view of the sky it would work. Power should be your only issue. There are jamvoxes that the unit clips to so if you can carry electronics in the stadium that may be the simple solution. Good luck!

If you attach a 2nd mic to filter background noise you will get excellent quality sound. By itself it's pretty good but, it will pick up any background noise so just don't podcast where there is a lot of that.

I would say so if the surrounding noise level is not too high...for it's size and price it put out a quality sound. However, if its a busy park with a lot of noise level you may need something with more output.

Raven, to my understanding the bands are the wireless signals that the audio travels over. If you have too many wireless mics or deceives on one band there can be interference. If you are only running a few mic then you will be fine with band A. However, if you are running tons of mics in a stadium I would find out what bands the other mics are and then buy a band that isn't currently in use in your setup. I have two sets of the 112ps on one band and I don't have any problems.I hope this helps.

From my personal experience, I was very disappointed in the performance of the amplifier. The reception of several stations are fine, with a couple of weak stations. The picture quality was the same on all of the tv stations, with or without the amplifier. I also tried it on 2 other television sets with the same results. Even switching in and out the FM attenuator had no influence on the picture quality (In the remote chance that we had an interfering FM radio station.) Without any real test equipment to verify my conclusions, the bottom line is, does the picture look better on the television with the amplifier? The answer to that I would have to say no from my experience. From my personal experience, I was very disappointed in the performance of the amplifier.

That would be awesome. You can see the difference especially on high frequencies. I definitely recommend. I compared this with some others and I got the best result with it.

It would depend on the noise level.See what others say and then make your decision. Good luck!

oh yes, i highly recommend it ! the best way i would use it is to put it in the middle of your seats, inbetween so that the sound will carry thru !! good luck enjoy!

It's ironic but it gonna work a little better without the antenna, since you don't have a millions radio signal in the same frequency, the static noise gonna be less! But anyway I don't recommend you this device it has a really poor cuality! Look for another one!

All I know is it didn't work for me. There was constant interference no matter what station I set it to. When I did find a station where I could actually hear music coming through the speakers it was very muffled. It's really just a toss of the dice if you want to give it a try or not. According to the reviews it has worked for some people.

If you are wanting to broadcast an FM signal, which isn't clear from your question, you can simply use a 1/8 in. stereo plug to connect between the SainSonic and your IPAD. The transmitter unit has two power levels. If the 0.5 watt output doesn't cover the area (which I think it will), you can push the power up to 1.0 watt. The broadcast frequency is selectable. Anyone in the stadium with an FM receiver who tunes to the selected frequency will be able to hear the game coverage.

I've actually used them while playing computer games while my roommate watched football on TV just a few feet away (4-5'). They do an okay job at that. I could really only hear the TV when my game was quiet. They'll probably work pretty well as long as you sit a little farther away than I did.
