I see no reason to try and jam the entire band. Just put together a
simple FM transmitter and as someone earlier suggested, transmit a
squeal or something equally irritating over whatever station they're
listening to. As M->P suggested, that will be far easier to accomplish
technically. If you need schematics for a simple FM transmitter that's
very easy to build, yet very effective I can help you there. I've
built and used several on this design. In fact, there's a drag strip
in GA using a transmitter I built off of this schematic using it to
transmit race stats so people can listen in their cars and with head
sets so they can hear over the loud car exhaust. Also got the board
foil design and component layout making it super simple to build if
you want to go the professional route.

I thought the person already had a transmitter
Oops... didn't read all the way down, now did I.![]()
The person said the PO was 5 watts. That sounds like a home
brew unit. I used to own a 50 watt exciter. It was
responsible for generating the FM frequency, modulating it,
and amplifying it to 50 watts where it was originally
designed to feed a 5000 watt commercial transmitter. It made
a pretty decent little pirate radio station. I built a
J-pole antenna out of some wire and PVC tubing and I got
about a 5 mile radius with full quieting. Called the station
WEED, muhahwahahahah.

How or where do i obtain the schematic and cb layout ??

Let me run to my office (where it happens to be), grab it and scan it
then I'll stick it on one of my web servers and post a URL.
What's the power input to the final and what final amp ?
9 vdc keeps it legal, but it'll take considerably more.
As far as the final... ugh... IIRC the final was a 2N3096, but I'm not
sure now. It's been quite a few years since I did anything with that
print. Will post when I've got it up.
Hmm that 2N3096 is just a little what, 500 mw max ?
IIRC what I had had a single stud mounted MRF 315. 4 watts
input, 40 something out on a 28 volt Vcc.
Don't recall now. Was thinking the 2N3906 would handle 1.5 W, but my
books are at the office... and that may not have been the final
anyway. I just don't remember. I do recall that heat dissipation, not
max VCEO was the limiting factor on the power output and hence input
voltage. Will post when I have it.
The nice thing about this little gadget is that it can be built on a
board the same size as the 9v battery driving it making for a very
compact unit and it'll still make a mile with a decent antenna.
Actually, I've got plans for much smaller transmitters designed for
use as "bugs" that aren't much larger than the 2032 button cells that
drive them although the range is considerably less. I've never
bothered to assemble one though. This sort of thing would be just an
experimental toy to me as I have no real use for such.
I've seen those things in -kit- form. Some with stereo
output. 9 volts keeps the power under the legal limit but
crank it up to 15 and it doubles. I set up one for a guy who
had a drive-in restaurant. He had a 50's theme and wanted to
broadcast 50's music for the drive in customers. Worked
pretty decent once I found a spot that had no other local
stations.
Ya, exactly the same thing I did for the drag strip. This wasn't a kit
though. I don't recall who did the circuit design or where I got it
from but it was just a schematic and description. I did the board foil
design for it on a computer several years ago and built a few.
