Default Very Small Transmitter

Does anyone have a diagram or supply list for a transmitter that will do the following?

1. I need it to be small enough to fit maybe something like a large dice in size and demension. Or even like a small cell fone in size.
2. I need it to be low distortion. It will be used to pick up a conversation in a small crowd.
3. I would say the range needs to be at least +/- 500ft
4. FM radio would be fine but if a receiver could be built for it, that would be great..
5. The transmitter has to be discrete. VERY DISCRETE! NO outside antena
Battery only needs to be good for maybe 2hrs so maybe a large watch battery or several or those type of batterys.

It is illegal to eavesdrop on people. Shame on you. Mind your own business!

Before you said it will pickup a conversation in a small crowd and must be discrete.
Now you changed your tune and need to hear if monkeys fighting.
I don't believe you.

"It will be used to pick up a conversation in a small crowd"

"Its going into a cage where i have some very exspensive african monkeys. i just need to know if they are fighting"

eh?

A baby monitor would work for the monkey cage? The range may not be enough though...

He needs to hear what his small crowd of monkeys are arguing about. Maybe they are talking about HIM.

ok what ever you think . I have no reason to eavedrop on anybody. I told you what i needed it for. I have a collection of animals. i said no antena on the outside too. That wouldn't imply that it might be ripped off. Thanks uncle scrooge i registered on this forum after i found it Needing some help because everything i found the net that would do the same is so exspensive. if it might get smashed why would i spend 1500.00 on it. WHy not build it for nothing. IF YOU WANT TO HELP FINE IF NOT PLEASE DON"T PEE IN MY CHEERO'S

Worse, every 2 hours, the monkeys will be fighting again until a recharge.

You did change the story quite a bit, I like the expensive african monkey part though.. I might need to use that one day (thanks)..

See if supercircuits.com has what you need. But they will probably ask if you are with law-enforcement though.

Also, I would not leave my Sprint TREO in a cage of monkeys. Imagine the long distance charges to africa and damage to it.

Just kidding with you of course. There are spy shops that have them too. If really for the monkeys a baby monitor would work.

EDIT: AudioG I am still lauging about "Maybe they are talking about HIM". Oh too funny.

The wages of dishonesty or the appearance of dishonesty are to be ridiculed and then ignored. Tch-Tch

Monkeys -- let 'em fight. If you deprive them of their natural behaviour they will become depressed. You can always find more to smuggle and mistreat.

It is difficult to make a transmitter that stays on its frequency. It is difficult to make a sensitive radio receiver. Many small modules are made for remote opening of car doors but their range is not as far as you want.

I would just use two FRS "walkie-talkie" radios that cost only $50.00 for a pair and come with rechargable batteries and a charger. They work very well and have a range that is plenty. Then you can hear your monkeys talk about you if you want.

Don't eat soggy yellow Cheerios.

Actually, why not an FM transmitter? Very small. AudioGuru is right about the drift though. Cheap to make, I have made a few, one to send low audio from my TV to the couch while my kids slept (wife wife thinks I keep it too loud).. Two transistor version or better should be good. Range will be fair as well and antenna, well, hide it inside.

Use a radio to pick it up. I did one that I know went more than 100 feet through walls.

Now we all know what Cheerios are don't we? And Yellow snow.

Now you do not have your location filled in so maybe you don't. Either way, Cherrios are overrated. Was there a wikipedia on them? There is for about everything else? I am afraid to even search for my name on the internet.
