Re: A89: A Radio Link idea




can I attach the end of the antenna to the top of a 25-30ft pole(can I get a
cable that long?, its pretty hilly around here)

also what's veronica fm, or even better what's the name/brand/model of your
transmitter

and one again what's the FCC limit on watts(so I can just lie when I'm
broadcasting)
