Page 2 of 4 On to the Tunecast 3 itself,  We can see that its looks have been greatly improved, it now boasts a much sleeker design, as well as a relatively high-res, and very clear OLED display, a big improvement on the old screen from the Tunecast 2. The Tunecast 3 includes a total of 6 control buttons, to control power, stereo/mono output, tuning and memory presets. The controls are very straight forward and easy to use. 
The audio connection cable has almost tripled in length over the old Tunecast 2, making it around 20” long (~51cm), this is a big improvement as the cable on the Tunecast 2 was way too short. 
The Tunecast 3 can be set on any FM frequency from 88.1Mhz to 107.9Mhz, in increments of 0.1Mhz,  so you’re sure to be able to find a clear channel, and 2 presets can be put into memory. The presets even remember if you had it set on mono or stereo output, which is toggled by a button on the top of the unit. The mono/stereo switch is a useful inclusion, because if your signal is a bit weak when using stereo, switching to mono will help to clear it up, at the loss of stereo playback of course, but at least it gives you the option. The Tunecast 3 also uses a 2-second progress bar for powering on/off, changing mono/stereo output, and storing presets. If you release the button before the progress bar reaches the end, the action is cancelled, which means you can’t accidently bump the unit and turn it off. You can however accidently change the station, as there is no ‘key lock’ function, which is a bit of a disappointment. The Status Bar
