i still would like to get a good signal am and / or fm up at the pool in our complex which is about 250-300ft away from me. my main transmitters are a Waio BR8000 certified part 15 fm transmitter and a procaster for am.
i have another procaster, some surplus UPS with good batteries i can scrounge, i am sure i have a PLL fm portable somewhere.
i am thinking a fm yagi wired to a fm portable to pick up off the air my part 15 fm and feed that into the procaster and put it all in a weatherproof enclosure with a solar panel on a mast close to the pool area.
it will be conpletely self contained and self sufficient and not reliant on anyones internet or elctric.
it would be nice if i could obtain permission from the complex manager to install it out of the way somewhere close to the pool or find a resident on a second floor close to the pool who would let me munt it on their porch.
just an idea i have been playing with. i still need to find a lockable weatherproof enclosure and a solar panel of sufficient size and a charge controller likely find both cheap at harbor frieght and to either buy or build a fm yagi.
what do you guys think? i think a good sensitive dc powered portable connected to a yagi pointed in the direction of my part 15 fm should make it 300ft even with some obstructions.
