Search for FM radio stations (88 MHz to 108 MHz)
Several frequencies have been set aside for use by low power FM but by driving around in your car to locate a frequency that is not being used is the best policy. A cars radio is generally more sensitive than household radios.

FM Stereo Transmitter, Case, Adapter & Whip Antenna
A cut above the rest, the FM25B features a PIC microprocessor for easy frequency programming without the need for look-up tables or complicated formulas! The transmit frequency is easily set using DIP switches, no need for tuning coils or tweaking to work with todays digital receivers. Frequency drift is a thing of the past with PLL control making your signal rock solid all the time - just like commercial stations. The FM25Bs real claim to fame however is the use of the latest cutting edge stereo generator on the market.
The audio quality is excellent with amazingly good stereo separation to keep even the pickiest audiophiles happy! Connections are as good as they get; use the provided cable to interface with the line output of any CD player, tape deck, computer or mike mixer. Just build it, plug it in, and youre on the air
10 Base-T Patch Cables - Straight Through
Patch cables connect equipment to wall jack, and patch panel to network electronics. T568A and T568B pin out options can be ignored in patch cable since both ends are preterminated by the manufacture.
Patch cables come in two versions, straight through and crossover. Straight through are used in most circumstances. UTP Ethernet uses a point-to-point wiring scheme. The transmit port of the computer connects to the receive port of the hub/switch and vice versa. If this arrangement cannot be used, for example two computers in direct connection or connecting a switch to another switch a crossover cable is required. Crossover cable swaps transmit and receive pair at one end so like devices can be interconnected. The function of Crossover cable is identical to using an Uplink port on an Ethernet Hub or Switch. 10 and 100 Mbps Ethernet use two of the four pair, Gig uses all four.
Newer Ethernet devices implement autosensing that automatically determines which pair is used for transmit and receive. Autosensing eliminates the need for crossover cables and uplink ports.
