Every person in the Homeland (former U.S.A.) and many world countries
is legally
entitled to operate a personal hobby radio station under
Part 15
of the FCC (Federal
Communications Commission) Rules, or rules of another
country, using low-power micro-transmitters.
The devices which enable
this kind of operation are available from numerous suppliers. No
license required.
A personal hobby radio station is ideal for listening to
streaming
radio
from your computer, broadcast to radios located
upstairs, downstairs, even outdoors in the yard. It's time this
technology becomes better known.
Here at KDX we operate a streaming radio station circling
the worldround web while inside the Internet Building
here in
North
America we enjoy KDX on radios tuned to a personal
house
frequency. At your
location it would is possible to link KDX
from computer to radios throughout your living quarters!
As this web page evolves, we'll post links to equipment
suppliers as
well as other websites devoted to Part 15 AM radio.
Also, we plan to post information regarding basic, high
quality
radios.
Various Low Power Links
CAVEAT. Some
transmitters listed in the TRANSMITTER column are FCC Certified.
Legal: No License Required

Low Power Radio Discussion
Because micro-transmitting is legal under Part 15, what is so-called
"pirate radio?"
Simple. Broadcasting with more power or larger antenna than allowed
under Part 15 Rules requires an FCC license, otherwise is
illegal. This
Part
15 Radio web page and
KDX
Worldround Radio
support ONLY legal operation of Part 15 micro-transmitters and
in
no way promote or encourage unauthorized broadcasting. Apart from
that proviso, the history of pirate radio is interesting in
itself, and this link tells the story:

About KDX
From
Transmitter Ranch
Global presence of KDX programming takes place on the internet, whereas
local broadcast of KDX programming is
done within our
home
campus. Unlike
many hobby radio stations KDX is not reaching for a
public audience. Our transmitters
provides utility
to KDX internal operation enabling us to receive the signal both inside
the Internet Building and outdoors on the grounds.
