Impedance mismatches cause power loss. That matters if you are running 100,000 watts or even 25 watts but all I expect to be putting out is a couple of hundred milliwatts. Even if I use a 1/4 wave whip which has a nominal impedance of 50 ohms and the TV booster has an output impedance of 75 o

if max puts an antenna on a booster; would his trouble be the match between the output of the booster and the rca inputs of the transmitter? Don't the C-Cranes take rca input? On Tue, 1 Dec 2009, Tom Fowle wrote: > Max, > that will probably work, since those wide band boosters have to produc

Hi Max, Please do let me or us know your findings. I have a home recording studio and tried feeding remote FM radios from an FM transmitter but was not satisfied with the result. This sounds like an alternative to running multi wires to headsets. BTW, if any one is interested, you can hear e

Max, that will probably work, since those wide band boosters have to produce a relatively high amount of total power out, many low powered chanels added together with one input gives you one pretty big boom, you may get as much as 2 watts or so out of them. this according to our friend Richard O
