Product Description That's right, we said STEREO! Just connect a cassette deck, CD player or mixer panel to the FM10C's line level inputs and you're on-the-air with a school, dorm, camp, home, church or neighborhood FM station! Here's a great entry-level kit that will teach the basics of FM Broadcast Transmission while finding many uses around the home or dorm room. The FM10C has plenty of power to cover your home, back yard, or city block. Our manual goes into great detail outlining all the aspects of antennas, transmitting range and the FCC rules and regulations. You'll be amazed at the exceptional audio quality of the FM10C. Tunes through the entire 88-108MHz band in three separate ranges with a tuned LC circuit. Re-broadcast your favorite music commercial free and with the dynamic range the musician intended, without all that nasty compression the big boys use to make their station sound louder than the competition. Compression produces a noticeably muddier and less dynamic sound. The unit runs on internal 9V battery, external power from 5 to 15 VDC, or an optional 120 VAC adapter (model FMAC) is also available. Includes the matching case & knob set for a professional finished look. Case size 5"W x 1 1/2"H x 5 1/4"D
(Note: The FM10C is a do-it-yourself learning kit that you assemble. The end user is responsible for complying with all FCC rules & regulations within the US, or any regulations of their respective governing body)

| Customer Reviews: OK product, GREAT customer service July 7, 2010 Roger Davis Some kit builders have technical issues with how this kit is designed. It WILL drift depending on various factors. If you want a rock solid signal, get the Ramsey FM25B. I needed some parts to finish this kit after making a few mistakes and the tech support staff was very helpful in helping me figuring out what I needed. Keep in mind you won't get this kind of service if you order from a non-Ramsey reseller. For me its worth a few bucks extra. I will also say when I bought this kit it was cheaper on shipping to get it from Amazon than it was from Ramsey's own site.
If you want to rebroadcast digital material throughout your house! March 22, 2010 509 (Wenatchee, WA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I built one of these from a kit. They are easy to solder and build. Much better than the CC Crane transmitter, which is the second best choice. It is completely in a different class than the FM transmitters you buy at mass merchandise chains.
There are FCC regulations limiting power of FM transmitters. What I was surprised at given the regulations was the variation in quality.
This is the BEST FM transmitter I could find. I also own the CC Crane FM transmitter which is OK, but significantly below this one in quality. I would not buy a FM transmitter other than one of these two.
FM transmitters are handy for rebroadcasting streaming audio from a computer, TV, or you music collection throughout the house. They work much better in areas with few FM stations. You do need a clear channel to broadcast the FM signal.

You pay for what you get. It was very easy to build. Nice little project. One problem. The frequencies slightly moves. +/- 0.1MHz over time making you chase it around the dial every few hours.
