Greetings dudes.
I am building a 3 volt FM transmitter, just strong enough to scare the bejesus out of the wife when she is listening to her crappy music :o)
The project suggests using a half wave antenna instead of a single wire. I understand the use of a 50 Ohm coax , it is the wire they hook up in a loop between the signal and the ground ( respectively the centre of the coax and the shield) every site that I have checked states that this loop should be
150/Mhz. Here comes the stupid question, what are the units? Do they mean 150 mm per Mhz? I will be attempting transmissions between 99.0 and 100 Mhz providing I can properly tune the Cap. does this mean my antenna would have a 15 meter antenna in a loop shape? This sounds wickedly big?Mathematically challenged old geezer. Montreal Canada
