An FM Broadcast Transmitter For Your Home

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the on-the-air dept.

Bruce Perens writes "I wanted to be able to listen to net audio and my ham station around the house and yard. Those iPod FM transmitters don't have enough range. So, I bought a digital controlled, 100 miliwatt transmitter that covered my whole block the first time I plugged it into what was, until then, a recieving antenna."

      Bart: [over the radio] Rod! Todd! This is God!
      Rod: How did you get on the radio?
      Bart: Whaddya mean, how did I get on the radio? I created the universe!
      Stupid kid.
      Todd+Rod: [fall to their knees and clasp their hands]
      Todd: Forgive my brother. We believe you.
      Bart: Talk is cheap. Perhaps I'll test a guy's faith. Walk through the wall! I will remove it for you.
      Rod: [walks into the wall] [thud]
      Bart: Ha ha ha.
      Todd+Rod: [return to their knees in prayer]
      Todd: What do you want from us?
      Bart: I got a job for you. Bring forth all the cookies from your kitchen and leave them on the Simpsons' porch.
      Rod: But those cookies belong to our parents.
      Bart: Ugh! Look, do you want a happy God or a vengeful God?
      Todd: [quickly] Happy God.
      Bart: Then quit flapping your lip and make with the cookies!
      Todd+Rod: Yes, sir!

    If you play music, can the RIAA sue the air for abetting the distribution of copyrighted material?
