It's just a low power FM station with a raspberry pi in it as a controller. It would be highly illegal to use this device in most modern nations without a license.
- voltagex_ 11y agoThe Nokia N900 could broadcast short-range FM with RDS, I'm not sure what advantages this has.
- neilwillgettoit 11y agohigher power. The n900's transmitter was 15nW (1.5e-8 W), which is why it was legal. For a claimed 6km radius, I would assume this is about 3-7W output.
- zumatic 11y agoA 6km radius would fit quite well with schemes like Community Radio in the UK: http://consumers.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio/radio/a-guide-to-community-radio/ http://consumers.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio/radio/a-guide-to-comm... ...still need a licence, of course.
