Hi guys,
I just recently bought a HLLY 500mW FM transmitter. It seems to have good specs on it and it's relative affordable. It comes with a basic antenna and 12V power supply.
I have read some post on here about running these types of transmitter with a FCC warning for non-licensed operator. ke5frf seems to know a lot about this topic.
I live in US and want to know if this transmitter power is FCC compliant. I ran a quick test and I got about a mile radius.
If I reduce the input DC power, will it help reduce the radio output to FCC legal level? Or do I need a dummy load using a resistor in the 50ohm coax?
Thanks.
