Re: [LPFM] The Highway is on the air

Good one Nigel
Welcome to the LPFM family :)

My TX is a Veronica... it runs well after I solved a few dry-joints on the
final transistor.... Just make sure you don't over modulate your sound
levels... you'll need a compressor/limiter of some kind.... my
compressor/limiter is the Audio stage in a stereo video recorder... circa
1984... every one gives me a hard time about that....
