Until now, such FM transmitters have had to be licensed, but PTS wants to abolish the requirement.The Local, reports that, "the issue first arose a few years ago when importers wanted to sell mp3 players with built-in FM transmitters in Sweden. PTS considered that the risk of interference was too great and, despite protests from the electronics industry, banned the use of such devices."
An FM transmitter in an mp3 player allows music stored on the device to be played through a car radio or a home sound system with a radio built in.
