        <title>Testing an LIPD FM radio transmitter - how far will milliwatts go?</title>

        <description>Low interference potential devices are small radio transmitters that can be used without a licence on certain frequencies because they are unlikely to interfere with other users.  Details of frequencies and power limits here: http://www.acma.gov.au/WEB/STANDARD/pc=PC_1278 but note that regulations vary between countries. This video is a range test of a class licensed LIPD FM transmitter operating in the 36.6 - 37 MHz band.  The transmitter has just three transistors:  FM modulator, 18.4 MHz crystal oscillator and frequency doubler.  Output power was 10 - 20 milliwatts to a vertical dipole antenna. The results were successful.  A range of about 500 metres was achieved with low power.  An increase to the 100mW legal limit would likely increase this distance to about 1 - 2km.
