This year I decided to invest in an FM Transmitter. I wanted to broadcast my Halloween music throughout the house without running wires.
I had read/saw some other Halloween-L members using an FM transmitter to broadcast their "Halloween" show for neighbors and cars that drive by.
Earlier this year while looking at houses (to move), we were shown a house by our Realtor that had a FM transmitter inside. They had Jazz music playing in each room of
the house on clock radios and other small radios placed in each room. It was like each radio was dialed into the same station. It was a great idea, placing a mood into the entire house. While touring the
home, we stumbled unto the source, a Ramsey Pro FM Transmitter.
I looked into buying a transmitter and really only found one good one on the market. It was the Ramsey FM100B. I quickly ordered one from the web site but was surprised
to find out the I had bought a KIT. Yes, a kit. It started to make sense. They don't sell pre-built FM transmitters over a certain wattage. It is illegal. I didn't know. The KIT came in hundreds of
electrical components, diodes, resisters, and capacitors, all needing to be soldered to an electronic circuit board. To much work for me.
