Re: [IRCA] Talking House Transmitter for Sale
Bert and Group;
I saw two FM Talking House transmitters at a Goodwill, last Fall for $6
each. They both contained a cassette deck and used a continious loop
cassette. They also had a line in. I think that they are both gone,
now.
Bert - suggestion, ask local realtors if they have a spare to loan the
school. Your school can get the use of the transmitter and the group
can maybe get some marketing benefit from the trade.

I wonder if this is a good deal. I was considering buying this for
my school and having it in addition to the amateur radio setup I'm about
to install. Any thoughts?
THE "TALKING HOUSE" TRANSMITTER was originally manufactured for
real estate agents and home owners who wanted to broadcast a recorded
message advertising a house for sale. This transmitter is placed inside
the home and it transmits messages and announcements that can be
received on any standard AM radio. The transmitter closely resembles a
small VCR and it will broadcast a 100mW signal to any standard AM radio
within range. The transmitter soon caught the interest of hobby radio
enthusiasts and eventually it became a popular device for aspiring DJ's
and announcers who wanted to create their own neighborhood radio
station. The transmitter does not require any license to operate and it
is completely self contained with everything necessary for easy set up
and operation. It will broadcast on any frequency between 530 KHz to
1700 KHz with 100 milliwatts output which is the full legal limit
allowed for unlicensed operation. The transmitter features LED frequency
selection th!
at locks in for a drift free signal on the AM broadcast band. It even
features a built in antenna tuner that will automatically calibrate the
transmitter for maximum performance to the supplied antenna. The typical
range using the supplied 10 foot wire antenna usually averages about ?
mile in a suburban area. An external antenna can also be connected to
the Remote Antenna Jack on the back panel. Audio can be recorded using
built in microphone which stores a 5 minute message that continuously
repeats on the audio loop chip. Live audio can also be fed using the
Direct Live Input Feed Jack on the back panel. This transmitter can be
used to broadscast local messages to recreation facilities, camp
grounds, stadiums, block parties, neighborhood fairs, church and school
events, or you can just have fun and set it up to create your own
neighborhood radio station! Complete with AC adapter included. Excellent
condition. Ready to go on the air! $50.00 + $15.00 shipping. Contact
