Using a total of 48 channles in the form of 3-16 channel controllers supplied by Light O Rama

   

FM Transmitter

A 5 watt stereo transmitter turned down to 1 watt to keep legal. A built in High Pass filter to give the audio crisp and clear sound. I also compress the audio before the pre-empasis stage in the transmitter to avoid clipping and harmonic distortion that would lead to bleed over. Powered by a 30 amp Diawa power supply.
