V5 is out, finally with 1500W of power in 2H form factor and large 4x16 LCD display! CYBER MAX FM+ now contains our new enhanced FM exciter finally bringing
direct power readout and a wide range of other functions. CYBER MAX FM+ are
perfect for demanding broadcasters, operating in the whole band II, from 87.5
to 108 MHz (operation on other bands is possible on request, please contact us). This unit in large 2H 19" rack
enclosure contains mains power supply and offers 1500W 24/7. Large heavy-duty ball-bearing 80x80mm cooling fans take care of any excessive heat easily. Transmitter consists of a stereo
encoder with pre-emphasis circuit, DSP processing, active low-pass filter, our professional
series PLL synthesizer, wideband no-tune RF stage with temp protection, good
output RF filter and optional RDS processor. You can select the performance
range that is most suitable for your budget. Unit is rugged and made for 24/7/365
operation, each comes with a wide-angle high contrast backlit LCD display. In
our opinion the best quality/price ratio possible.
RDS parameters can be programmed with the help of a PC via serial RS232 or USB connection
(cable and software included).
Depending on the model this unit can give up to 1500W of clean
RF power, exact power output can vary about +/- 10% depending on exact frequency,
ambient temperature and load matching.
All our manuals and software are available here.

What is DSP stereo?
This unit has a DSP stereo encoder, making your transmitter stereo. Very shart input filters with a deep 19KHz notch, advanced signal processing
with compressor and limiter, all adjustable via LCD display. The number
of settings is indeed fascinating, you can also set gain for each audio
channel, compression ratio etc.
How much range can I expect?
You can read more about range in this guide HERE.
What is RDS?
Radio
Data System, basically it displays station name and sometimes song name
and similar information on a compatible radio receiver. Very popular in Europe,
less so in the US. Requires connection to a PC at the time of programming, but
retains settings even when powered off.
What is "Mobile phone remote control (SMS)"?
Connects to the RS232 port at the back of your transmitter and enables remote control of the transmitters via GSM phone network. SIM card and contract not included. Commands and alarms are sent and received via SMS. An app exists for Android phones.
What is replacement final transistor?
You can buy this just to have a handy replacement transistor in case it gets damaged some time in the future, for example if there is a lightning strike.
WHAT CAN I USE AS AUDIO SOURCE?
- A high quality mixer with telephone hybrids, such as this very popular unit.
- Professional broadcasting microphone with noise-free stand, such as this
one.
- Your PC. Just plug audio cable into your sound card. Add SAM
broadcasting.
- CD player, MP3 player or any other music reproduction system
WHAT ELSE WILL I NEED AND IT WASN'T INCLUDED?
- Requires mains plug which can be purchased in your country (each country
has a different mains plug and we don't carry all). This is standard mains plug and its price is typically around 1 US$ or less. You
can get it in any electronics store, such as radio shack, circuit city, any
computer store etc. Always use grounded plug for your safety!
- You will also need antenna, you can order one HERE
- You will also coaxial cable to connect antenna and transmitter, you can order
it HERE
- You will probably need some connectors as well, it is good to have several
adapters ready as well as they always come handy, check HERE
- You will need audio source (mixer, cd player, microphone etc). It is a good
idea to use PC as audio source and run some kind of audio scheduling software,
such as Jazler, Raduga or winamp. Winamp plugins such as rocksteady exist and
can make your sound even better.
Where can I buy everything I need to start in a package, including
antenna and everything else?
You can check our All-inclusive
transmitter packages, these include antenna, coaxial cable and
mains power supply. Another way to go would be to select your preferred antenna
here and coaxial
cable with connectors here, this way you can configure your own package.
