I was really bored and sifting thru the various part 15 websites i have bookmarked, after reading a few stories about sucessful part 15 am stations i decided it was a good time as any to dust off the sstran and give it another look-see.
I found a bad solder joint and will be fixing it after i post this blog or when the baby takes her next nap. (probably when she takes a nap 🙂 I was blown away by the hi-fi sound coming out of my cheap boombox on AM!
This kit really does live up to it’s name.
My range was awful at first but after tuning, grounding it to the cable splitter then hanging the wire antenna i heard a dramatic increase in modulation.
Range inside my 16×70 mobile home was good considering all the metal around me.
I patched into the feed on the fm25b for audio, turned off the processing software then adjusted the compression on the sstran. WoW! It really does sound great.
My wife agreed that it sounded as good as fm.
I am really pleased with this rig and ill keep you posted on my progress as i get ready to build the antenna.
