ok thanks for the info!

It is an NPN transistor from Radio Shack, 15 in a pack. Video T3-3 is a good design for an FM one transistor transmitter. Also The way I built it was not for looks. Part position at those frequency is very important, this is something that does not show in a wiring diagram.

I hope you have fun and success with this project. I did three videos on this one transistor transmitter. T1-3, T2-3, and T3-3. Good luck!!

@AllAmericanFiveRadio THANK YOU. My son and I are going to try this project.

Yes it did. I have called them and they had a major outage so they were not pick just on me. But while I was on hold for 15mins I thought I would make it worthwhile. I changed to a new server and transfered my domain name to the new server also. I had been on the old system for over 6 years, time to upgrade.

Your website died!
What value of variable capacitor did you use? What if I just wanted to turn this into a A.M. transmitter? What variable capacitor could i use?

You could use the variable capacitor from an AM radio, and the oscillator coil too.

i never build something like this before. nice little transmitter to start with. how far (in meters) can this transmitter go? regards from the netherlands, jens.

Hey Jens,
This one, 1-3, works and would cover a room or two. 2-3 will cover most of the house. 3-3 covers about a block of the neighborhood. If you use an outside tuned di-pole antenna with 3-3 it will cover 1 mile=1609.344 meters easy.
