Don't stations have to be 400 khz apart in the US? Could I still hear a station pretty well if I got one of those little Ccrane transmitters and stuck it in the immediate spot between 2 stations? What I mean is, suppose there are stations on 101.1 and 101.5, could my little home unit be safely put on 101.3 and not cause other apartments to hear interference if they want to listen to either of those stations? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arnaud de Bonald" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
