FM Band Transmitter Specs - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Sorry for posting in multiple places, but I need this in a hurry.

Does anyone know exactly what FCC spec governs the output of an FM transmitter? My application is for low power (<1 W), and in fact will be covered by Part 15. However, I want to know the real specification limits for THD, frequency accuracy, L-R channel separation, S/N, etc.

I have spent a couple hours searching the web and the FCC website but CANNOT find it!!! :(

Thanks a lot guys (and gals, if applicable :wink: ).

I believe this is what you're looking for.
Radio and Television Broadcast Rules 47 CFR Part 73
Look in Subpart B.
Good luck.
