The model section looks more like an ebay auction description rather than actual section like a good cheap nd more efforts

Rename article?

edit

I suggest the name of this article is a little too inclusive and it should be renamed. Although the term FM transmitter is often used for the personal transmitters which are the subject of this article, the term is also used for FM broadcasting transmitters found in FM radio stations, and for frequency modulation transmitter circuits in a wide variety of other electronic gear. I suggest renaming this article Personal FM transmitter, which is another common but more accurate term for the device. --ChetvornoTALK 21:05, 13 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Barring serious objection, I am going ahead with the rename. --ChetvornoTALK 21:46, 16 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Unsourced?

edit

Well, When I found that Wikia could allow some more freedom for Wikipedia-like articles that were encyclopedic to some extent, I just copied some items from this article to a Wikia article. Wikia:Repurposing:Personal FM transmitter, some information was transferred to this page, since that is my "workaround" as per Wikipedia's strict guidelines.

Some claims tend to be UNSOURCED, but I think Wikia is more lenient than Wikipedia.

In the Uses section, three sentences in a row start with the same phrase: "They are also used..."

"They are also used to broadcast a stationary audio source, like a computer or a television, around a home. They can also be used for low-power broadcasting and pirate radio but only to a very limited audience in near proximity. They can also be used as a "talking sign" in real estate sales or similar..."

FCC Part 15 limits

edit

In the United States, a maximum of 250 µV/m at 3 meters is allowed for unlicensed FM broadcasting under the FCC part 15 regulations. For unlicensed AM radio the limit is 100 mW of power and an antenna length of 3 meters. Both systems have a limited range of 200 feet. So in order for a device to be Part 15 type accepted, the device has to be tested in accordance to the limits mentioned above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.200.180.138 (talk) 07:39, 25 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
