FM TransmittersA 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

FM TransmittersOur antenna kit consists of rugged pre-cut PVC pipe, antenna radiating elements and of course the proper matching assembly and is fully water-resistant when assembled.
The antenna is easily mounted to any standard TV antenna mast like you can find at Radio Shack or K-Mart. A standard ?F? style coax connector is used, so that readily available, low cost RG-59 TV coaxial cable can be used for connection. And we even supply an RCA phono to F Male adapter for easy connection to any transmitter antenna jack.
Total length of the antenna is about 5 feet, and it is easily mounted horizontally or vertically polarized - yes, we even explain in the manual the pluses and minuses for each.
Maximum input power is now 25 watts. If you?re serious, and want a good signal, the TM-100 antenna is for you. You can put this antenna together in less than an evening! Used with the R-FM10A, R-FM25 or R-FM100.
We offer the manual in Adobe Acrobat PDF format right here! The manual is complete, with the exception of the schematics.

FM TransmittersSeveral 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.

NetworkingPatch 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.

<td>Tracking (or locating) a GPS cell phone is easy with
AccuTracking. Your cell phone becomes a personal security
tracker. The cell phone can also be installed in cars as a car
tracking device to locate your car easily online. What you need
is a Motorola iDEN GPS-enabled Java cell phone from Nextel or
Boost Mobile with the proper network plan (for example,
<a href=http://www.nextel.com/en/solutions/dataaccess/data_access_plan.shtml>
Nextel Data Access Plan</a> in US). AccuTracking software needs
to be installed and running on the phone to track the phone. It
does not use the traditional cell phone tower triangulation
method. It provides better location accuracy with AGPS. GPS data
is collected by the cell phone and transmitted via the network.
AccuTracking doesnt use the Enhanced 911 (E911). May need extra
accessories to be installed as a car locator. Might work on the
same phone models in other countries (Canada, Mexico,
Israel...). More information about
<a href=http://www.accutracking.com/faqs.html>cell phone
