Yes, for professionals and "pirates" alike. I was surfing thru the frequecies on FM, and tehre was not a ignle gap of stations. Then I went through tyhe AM frequencies, and there was a lot of room for more stations.

Oh, and i would need a mic i think, as it would be mostly talking.
So even with a good antena, would i not get a 5 mile range? And i think i could use directional one, as my audienece is mostly to the west of my house.

My "pirate" station

Hi everyone. I am looking into starting my own station. My listeners are with 5 miles or so. My budget is less than 200 dollars. SH=hould I get an FM or AM tranmitter. Can it even be done? What do I need? Do I need an external antenna? Thanks-bob
