    I built a fm big from a kit back in 90’s, an organisation called “talking electronics “ magazine released kits monthly, I remember this thing had a range of nearly a kilometre on 2 AA batteries, loved it.

    Brings back memories of me and my mate's when we where about 11 building a Hartley Oscillator and Transmitting am with it, we also found we could do Morse code on it and that increased the range to about 10 Times...Great fun using bits from old broken Transistor radio's.

    In the US, these are legal with 100mw or less power and 1 meter or less antenna. They are very popular in AM for people to use their restored antique radios to play old music or drama.

    @Silentaudits7 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I think you will have more stability if you tune it up to 110-115 mhz , use an 8 inch copper antenna . This takes you to the bottom end of the airband range and is virtually empty of other stations. The trusty old Steepletone SAB 9 is the fave amongst radio nerds and covers a huge freq range . tuning the pot is touch and go so best alter it and then search for the feedback ....a tip ...no one seems to have mentioned is that the pot is clockwise-lower freq. anti clockwise is higher freq. When tuned with a 9v pp3 it works really well .... t5urn the pot very slightly as its easy to lose the range if you go spinning the damn thing. For a smaller gadget use 3 cr2030's stacked and wrapped in heat shrink tubing and a mini toggle switch to save power when not in use ...
    ahem, now sonny , what 'ave we 'ere then... I think you ought to accompany me to my nearest police box ... haha

    Hello. I 've also bought several pcb modules of this kind but the compensator screw goes out and then moreover I don't have optimal listening performance. Annoying burns during 'listening. I have decided to buy a F-908 but have not been able to use it yet since I am not interested in applying headphones but instead a 'speaker so that I can record via smartphones, digital recorders, etc. But I am just now getting a 3.5 to 2.5 adapter for the jack. That's all for now.

    What a nice young fella me lad you are. Bought 2 of these and 2 cheap transistor radios. Idea is that I'm fed up with pushing buttons on a walkie talkie and hopefully the old dragon and I can argue about who's going to have a headache tonight whilst I mess about outside and she's cutting her toenails with my new wire cutters. Do you think 9V would be better and what length aerial would be best ? Just finished a quad bench power supply 2 x 9A 0V - 38V linear (can be paired to give 18 A), 1 X LT1083's 8A?(4 off in parallel) linear and a big buck. Weighs a ton. Why? no idea but it's fun init.

    • @CB-RADIO-UK

    CBOT wrote me on your channel but I don't see it (I only got the email notification. here is his message : "The spy ones usually operate on lower frequencies so they can't be picked up by a typical radio channels. I think you can go on Amazon and find them." My response : Okay, but I can't place them anywhere (since I can't get into other people's houses and don't have someone who can...) and I have to look for some solution, maybe a directional microphone with a dish and a trivial class D amplifier would be enough. I can hear by "naked" ear and I can hear my neighbors plotting against each other and sometimes I can understand some dialogue. Could you advise me on how to build a properly made wall microphone ....? I just don't want to dwell too much on this topic. Thank you very much. Hi.

    I wanted to ask if it is possible to detect the fm frequency of a nearby bug? I live in a two-family house and I am afraid that my neighbors use one pcb of these for ex. in the living room and the fm radio in another room ... . I intuit that they are talking about me (in the distance, very low volume ...) but unless I have tangible evidence to record I can't nail them!!! Clearly this is an environmental version (it detects voices, noises from a particular room, office, etc.) I hope to be able to detect the empty frequency (I choose an empty freq., move the pcb closer to the small radio, adjust the variable pF and then I want to test all the empty freqs) to see if I get what I have in mind. For the time being thank you very much.

    • @CB-RADIO-UK

      Best bet to find a FM bug's freq would be a used hand radio scanner which also covered the broadcast band that would pick up any FM radio signal.

      You can replace the trimmer capacitor with any small value capacitor. Start at 47p for lower frequencies somewhere at 85 to 90 MHz. Use an even smaller value capacitor for higher desired frequency.
