FM TRANSMITTER RANGE – UPTO 3 KM
This F.M Transmitter has 3 RF stages. A variable frequency V.H.F. Oscillator, a class C.R.F. driver and a class CRF amplifier with harmonics filter. Block diagram of transmitter is shown below .
Power supply is 9 to 12 volts dc. RF output power is 150 mill watts. With telescopic antenna (75 C.M) range is up to 1 K.M . Range can be extended upto 3 KM, BY USING multi element yagi antenna having dipole, reflector, director elements.
Frequency of transmitter can be set within 88-108 MHz F.M band by adjusting the first trimmer. Adjust output trimmer for maximum range of transmission.
To power this transmitter user 12 Volts battery. Do not user mains derive supply.
Suggested Yagi antinna design using aluminium rods is shown here. Use 75 ohm Co-axial cable between transmitter and antenna. Inner wite of cable is connected to output of transitter and braid is connected to ground of P.C.B.
Do not switch on transmitter without connecting proper antenna.
