Hi Jackie,

       My experience with the mini FM tuner that comes with the Archos MP3
Player is not good. This year I finally took a regular Boom Box along with a
larger antenna and got almost perfect copy at the District Convention in
Reading PA where the program was transmitted on the FM Band so that it could
be picked up.  At the Convention in Hamilton Ont however they do transmit
FM  'BUT NOT' on the FM Band. They have FM headsets only and I am not sure
how you could pick up the audio from them since I doubt they have a socket
you can use.  MP3 Recording of the entire program at Reading PA  fits on a
700 MB CD  in MP3 format. Check with the Convention overseer, you might be
able to talk to the sound overseer and see what is possible for audio
recording. The Archos picks up the audio transmission and builds MP3 files.
I have never had an IPOD but I understand they do not use MP3 as a recording
format.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
