CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION A quick glance at the Schematic Diagram show s that the custom FM stereo transmitter IC (U1) is at the hear t of the FM10A. The control of U1 is determined by its surrounding circuitr y . Potentiometers R1 and R4 allow for adjustment of input leve l. Resist ors R3 and R6 set the pre-emphasis characteristics (75uS for USA and 50u[...]

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Building your FM10A Stereo T ransmitter The following FM10A step-by -step assembly and adjustment directions are written with newcomers in mind. While many Ramsey kits are purchased by experienced hobby ists and ham radio o perators, our instructions presume that this st ereo trans mitter could b e your first ever ki t project[...]

• SOLDER ALL wires or pi ns of th e part, whether t he t wo wires of a resistor or the 18 pins of an IC socket. • Nip or "trim" all excess wires extending bey ond each solder connection, taking care that w ire trimm ings do not be come lodged in PC board solder conn ections. Enough said. . . Let's get building!  1. Install S1,[...]

Wiring the audio input circuits We encourage you to peek at the schematic diagram and learn the functions of the following parts. Howeve r, the sequence of installation is in the order of convenience and speed. If y ou wish, insert the parts groupings as one operation, then solder and nip all connections.  8. Install R1, one of the small yello w[...]

 17. Install glass bead diode D1.  18. Install glass bead diode D2.  19. Install glass bead diode D3.  20. Install R7, the small yellow trimmer potentiome ter marked "104".  21. Install C19, the 470 µF electrolytic. Be sure to position for correct polarity .  22. Install C1 1, 4.7 to 10 µF electr olytic. Observe p olar[...]

 35. Install R1 0, 10K ohm s [bro wn-black-orange]. The following t wo capacitors have the identical functions of coupling the RF output from the collector of Q1 to the RF output jack (J3) and also the mounting point provided if you wish to use an on-board whip a ntenna.  36. Install C13, .001 µF (marked .001 or 102 or 1 nf).  37. Install[...]

USING THE FM10A WITHIN THE HOME A most practical use for the FM10A would be to c onnect it to the main stereo system within a la rge home so th at whatever is playing on the main system can also be tuned-in on portable FM ra dios in other rooms, the garage or out in the yard. This connection consists of using shielded audio cables to connect the au[...]

negative battery wire. The resistor is omitted if y ou are using a 1.5 volt battery for prolonged short-range operation. EXPERIMENTAL "BROADCASTING" PROJECTS To use the FM10A successfully as a "broad casting" service to interested listeners in a school or immediate neighborhood, most of your effort will be concentrat ed on smoot[...]

Although many sources exist for audio mixers, the Radio Shack No. 32 - 1105 is the least expensive commercial device currently available.

APPENDIX A: FCC RUL ES AND INFORMATION The Rules of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) and yo ur kit built FM Stereo Transmitter. An interim explanation of applicable FCC regulations supplied as a personal assistance to FM10A builders, b y Dan F. Onle y (K4ZRA) It is the policy of Ramsey Electronics, In c., that k now ing and observing the[...]

held responsible for any violation thereof. 1. In the past, no "two-way communications" use of the 88-108 MHz FM broadcast band was permitted. This prohibition does not appea r in the current edition of Part 15. Previous editions of Part 15 discussed "wire less microphones" (such as Ramsey FM-1, FM-4, etc.), while the June 23, 1[...]

space for several different FM statio ns, this is a "generous" limitation designed to a ccommodate cruder FM devices. Properly built and adjusted, the FM10A kit operates w ell with in this li mit. In fact, its signal should sound no "w ider" than any other FM station when listening on an ordinary F M radio. • c. FCC Rule 15.21[...]

APPENDIX B: UNDERSTANDING LEGAL "FIELD STRENGTH" A "microvolt" is one-millionth of one volt and designated "µV" in the following explanations. The new FCC Part 15 Rules specify a maximum "Field Strength" of your transmitted signal. Since it is unlikely that you have the equipment to carry out accurate field [...]

broadcast on a school campus, campgr oun d or local neighbo rhood, as long as you do not cause interference to broadcast reception. “Why talk about acres"? There are three reas ons to transla te our look at "fie ld strength" into "acres". (1) The first one is easy : the numbers would get too cumbersome if we discussed you[...]

In fact, the most significant distance in the above chart is the 1.9 µV signal strength permissible at 1260 feet (about 1/4 mile), co vering a cir cular area of about 114 acres. A quick glance at st ereo FM receiver specifications shows typical sensitivity of 1.7 µV before considering high -gain antennas or preamplifiers. Your non-licensed signal[...]

4. Check your intended operating frequency ver y carefully, as clearly explained in this instruction m anua l, to ensure yo u will not cause interference to reception of licensed broadcasting. 5. If you receiv e ANY com plaint ab out your trans missions interferin g with broadcast reception, stop or change your operation IMMEDIATELY. 6. If you are [...]

[1] This device may no t c ause harmful interference, and [2] this device must accept any interf erence rece iv ed, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Final comment A well-inform ed person will see to day's FCC Rules to be evolving and progressively less-restrictive. Even though today's technology is far more compl[...]
