help needed, beginner

Post by bartonski »

HI, i want to set up a radio station in Prague. I have a rough idea of the equipment i need but am not sure if i will need specific equipment for broadcasting in a built up area with alot of other radio stations broadcasting. I am planning on most of the airtime being filled with non stop music. Would i be able to connect a transmitter to a laptop or pc...would i be able to use itunes to play tracks?

thanks in advance,
Rob

Well 10 square miles is a square about 5x5km.

You may be able to pull this off with 15W, but since this is urban center
with lots of buildings you will probably have dead spots.

Consider this package:

Don't forget to add stereo.



If you can afford 50W, go for 50W.
