INTRODUCTION TO THE FM100B
First we will begin with a little history of stereo transmitters at Ramsey
Electronics in order to give you an idea of how we arrived at the development of
the FM100B as our latest stereo transmitter. We have many people call us
each day asking questions about our earlier versions of transmitters such as
the FM25B and the FM10A. Most are questions concerning drifting, sound
quality, and transmitting distance. The tunable FM10A was a great product for a
low-cost entry into the world of micro-power transmitters. The FM25B was the
next step up offering a rock solid, stable frequency just like professional
stations. The latest step was to create a transmitter that not only has a rock
solid frequency, but also all the features you would find in a commercial station.
In answer to customer research and comments, here is the result of months of
design and years of stereo transmitter experience. The FM100B has all of the
features needed to run a professional sounding radio station. It includes
extensive audio filtering to prevent high frequency audio interference, AGC
(Automatic Gain Control) with the microphone to prevent overloading distortion,
a frequency display with easy frequency adjustment, 2 line inputs, 1
microphone input, PLL controlled, CD quality transmission, and more. In other
words we pulled all the stops to bring you a top quality product that will satisfy
even the most discriminating user.
Due to demand from our neighbors down south and wherever else it is legal,
we have included a special component section to give you 1 watt of RF output.
Simply connect a good quality antenna and bingo, you're on the air for miles (or
kilometers) around.
We are happy to bring you this truly professional product that will give you
many years of fun, reliable use, and enjoyment.
