FM Followers,

I hot-glued the transmitter to a piece of perf board:



Mounted it in a Pomona box that surely cost 3 or 4 times as much as the TX:



Power and audio via USB from my office PC.

Hooked it to my homebrew disk-cone antenna in the attic.  (aprox. 100 
feet of coax.)  Quick survey showed it covers the neighborhood for about 
100 yards before co-channel interference from WRHU, in Hempstead, 25 
miles, 500 watts, takes over.

I'm declaring this a success.

Al
