Disclosed is a hands-free electronic device including an FM receiver and an FM scanner to continuously scan for FM channels and to locate available FM channels for a list of available FM channels rated according to signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and/or a received signal-strength indication (RSSI). A short range transceiver may transmit and receive short range communications, from a handheld device. An FM transmitter of the hands-free device can transmit received short range communications via available FM channels of the rated list of available FM channels. The hands-free device may be in communication with, for example, an automobile FM radio. In this way, the car radio may audibly output that which is transmitted from the handheld device. In an embodiment, a speech synthesizer may be configured to generate speech output to indicate an available FM channel from the rated list of available FM channels.
