Need some advice from the FM ghuru's here.
I recently picked up and FM transmitter for and IPOD style device.
Marketed under the G.E brand it is really a JASCO Products HO987683.
My question concerns modifying the internal antenna to extend the range of the signal thruought my home.
When I open it up, if find a short piece of wire bonded to a squarish shaped foil backed cardboard in the case. I assume this is the antenna.
From what I have read, a suitable FM antenns can be had in using a conductor of around 57 inches length.
Does anyone here think doing this mod will increase the range from 2-3 meters to 20-30 meters?
PS. I am using this to broadcast from my PC soundcard and want the extra range to send the signal to my living room receiver.
Thanks in advance for your input.
