With Christmas around the corner, it’s time to get creative with those Christmas light displays.
As people drive up to your house to enjoy your lighting creativity, it’s a special treat to also have some Christmas music playing. When this is done over a loudspeaker it can be an annoyance to neighbors. Fortunately, there’s a better way to do this with the use of an FM transmitter like the Retekess FM transmitter.
Neighbors and passers-by can then tune in to the FM station you’re broadcasting on and it’s a beautiful experience. COVID-safe and fun for all!
Now let's check the details.
Why choose FM Transmitter?
Transmitting signals over FM is easy. It’s more cost-effective relative to any other wireless technology. Most importantly every car has an FM receiver. After you set it to an FM frequency, you can listen to the music sitting in your car. It is a much easy operation way than using Wifi or Bluetooth. The most important thing is that for the FM transmitter it can be changed working range based on change the output power of it. For the TR502, the working radius can be up to 2KM-3KM.
For this system you need:
1, An audio source – this can be a laptop or phone
2, An FM transmitter like the Retekess TR502 FM transmitter
The computer or audio source will connect to your FM transmitter which will in turn broadcast over an FM station.
Then how to set up it?
The first thing to do is to set up your Christmas playlist on the computer. Turn down the audio source volume on the computer and on the FM transmitter. It’s better to start at low levels and increase them gradually to test the system. Connect the computer to the FM transmitter with a good quality audio cable.
The next thing we have to do is to set up the FM transmit frequency. The first step is to identify which FM stations are already in use in your area. You don’t want to be transmitting on these frequencies as it will cause RF interference to listeners.
You will need to test this system with your own FM receiver. You can test it with the FM receiver in your own car. Or you can get yourself a simple FM receiver and conduct your testing with ease. Make sure the audio quality is good and there are no undesirable sounds, hums or interference. You will need to tweak audio levels to get the desired quality.
