Npr was a strongforce in lobying to eliminate and/or reduce unlicensed operations in the Us. What happened is that commercial Fm stations as well as Npr found that people using unlicensed transmitters with 100mw could place an antenna very high up and get a lot of coverage without a license so the FCC was pressured to eliminate this.

That used to be true before about 20 years ago. The legal unlicensed power used to be 100mw and still is for AM. That's why a number of people use AM now because you can actually transmit further legally using it. However on FM the legal power limit dictated by the FCC is now only about 200 feet. In large part you can thank NPR for that.

I thought they limitted unlicensed transmitters by power level rather than distance. Back in the day (early 60's) I ran a pirate a m station that covered most of the town. Don't even know what the power was, but they said we were illegal. If I knew then what I know now, we could have been really illegal.

The legal limit for fm unlicensed transmission in the USA is about 200 feet.

I think you should also determine the legality at your location and whether you would want to be illegal. In the US, I think there's a power limit; not sure what it is. Penalties used to be pretty stiff. I don't know if that's still the case.

These are the best transmitters in my opinion.
They also cost more than the conventail device you can buy at best buy. I think the range is what one needs to determine before buying the unit.
I personally totally love there devices and customer service.
I just wish they were cheaper.

There are a number of Veronica Fm transmitters although the company is now called Aareff so go to aareff.com and you will find all of them. Keep in
mind that these aren't certified by the Fcc if you're in the Usa.

I am writing to inquire as to whether there is more than one
incarnation of the Veronica FM transmitter.  I am considering the
purchase of a used one. From its description, it sounds as if it has
analog frequency adjustment, and I prefer to buy one which is phase
lock loop.

Three other questions if I may.  Is there a pot on the transmitter
which allows one to match the output from the source to the
transmitter? Second, will this unit work in conjunction with a whip
antenna, or must it be connected to a roof top antenna? Lastly, are
its input connectors RCA or 3.5 mm.?

Thanks for feedback.
