Yeah, but few of them have music, news, information, and station ID's like we do! 🤣

@mark For the band 490KHz-1705KHz, the field strength limit, as stated in 15.209, in microvolts/meter, at 30 meters from the antenna, is actually 2400...

@wefr Alternatively, the audio or power cables to each transmitter could be acting as radiating elements, and could be radiating more efficiently in o...

@richpowers - you may be right about the loss of seamless transition with the frequency agile units. The newer Rangemasters use frequency modules ins...

@wefr - are you sending unprocessed or processed audio to both units? I think you have an SW200 don't you? I only mention this because the Procaster h...

A big +1 to that. We spend quite a lot of time thinking and talking about efficiency of PA stages and loading coils, when the installation itself is p...

Just a word about the Rangemaster. There appear to have been various upgrades and changes made to the Rangemaster over the years. I purchased a brand ...

I can verify that the SW200 has no firmware at all. As Mark said, it is all analog processing. If you so desired, you could reverse engineer it and bu...
