Nice 1, gonna try this one soon

I have a 45-watt transmitter in a similar rack project box out in the garage from when I was about 13 when a buddy and I were running a Pirate station for our town as we had one school, The population was around 6k and in the middle of nowhere so we had one station. It was run by old gray-haired conservatives and played nothing but easy listening crap, so we made our own station, I was upgrading to my Tech HAM license then so it was a great learning project to parallel my ham radio builds as my parents would not buy me radios I had to build my RX TX station. We ran that for two years until I moved when 16, and they ran it for another year before getting shut down, I was able to retrieve the FM transmitter and have had it since, I always hoped one of my nephews would grow to show interest in radio so I could pass it on but they never did, It has an internal exciter and a two-stage preamp and was PLL controlled, with the PSU being external, and I recall the transmitted getting very hot after the 6 hours it ran every afternoon evening sometimes longer in the summer when school was out, and would itself heat the garage in the winter. Seeing that brought back some fond and not-so-fond memories. LOL

What pub was this? I'm guessing somewhere in or around Birmingham?

it looks like a very old building. shame to see it in that state. interesting

I doubt it is a breakers yard as it looks like stock to be restored. Also I would say they are relaying the track at the start of the video. There are around 1000 miles of railways in preservation now thanks to the determination of so many volunteers.

So sad it’s been destroyed like that

Amazing place, we were there a few weeks ago. Hope you didn't get poorly after being in here. (Like we did) The history on this place is amazing. 👍🏻 Nice 1.

Many years anandonrd. 🎉

Fantastic publication too, great video lads, appreciate your efforts

What area mate?

I just discovered your channel. The content is pretty much to my taste. I've always had a fascination for the abandoned places, urban exploration, and everything in between. Subscribed💛💙💚💜

looks like a 90S rave den.

Cool ✌️

Very interesting old farmhouse would love to know more about it.Thanks for the video.

What about harmonics?

Looks just like the one that was in the new planet of the apes movie

Just found you and subbed, enjoying the video

👍

That transmitter is not old, it's from the mid 2010's, it's around 10 years old or even newer, the 15 watt amplier is a RD15hvf1, theese modules are still available from the guy who sold this amp and the 1 watt PLL fm exciter, he's based in Athens Greece and still selling them on ebay. The amp as not perished it's probably been set to limit the output power to half the output power. Definately not from back in the day!!!

please sir i want know about charger ? We must need charge for this i rig stream ? If we don't have chager its working or not ? please

This is a preserved railway called the Northampton and Lamport railway . They sometimes run trains not always like larger railways. This is run by volunteers. They do all of the restoration work in that yard with the tent .

Can't wait for your next adventure

Really interesting video 👍

Nice. Interesting video.

Can you tell me where is that located.

Fright train x

Come to the railway on Sunday and see if it is disused or not. Believe me, you'll think twice about trespassing.

I've watched your videos on the "abandoned" railway and they're awful. I can't believe how much stuff you spout without knowing anything.

All of the track you see is used including the bit you tresspassed on, the run is nearly 2 miles.

15W tho? ;D You need a hundred or more unless your only intended listeners are your grandma at the end of the block!

Nice

Dumbest thing I've ever seen. Talk about STUPID. Hope you didn't expect it to take you to a Million. Totally STUPID!

Cool

9:57 😄 It's Si-nus like the sinewave. The board is last years project from the RN forum and is a copy of an earlier design from some years ago. (edit) just spotted the PCB designer in the comments

That is not 15 years old!

Why did they hide the display inside it ? Lots of room on the front panel .

Hi I have just bought this radio will I need to put an inline fuse on the power cable as I don't drive I just want for home base cheers for any help

I’m a bit behind watching this obviously but I just purchased one these for myself it’s a great little rig with good firmware works very well 👍

So, what is the maximum watt transmit power for a legal private low power radio station in the USA?

It's not perished, it's probably been adjusted to limit the power output. That device is probably only 12 years old

I'm so jealous of you people in the UK, you had a thriving pirate radio scene in the early 90's. I love the creativity that went into hiding the transmitters from the radio inspectors.

Instead of a regulator, the two 12 volt fans could’ve been connected in series to be ran on 24 volts.

I have one of those BNIB with all of the original guts in it. A VHF distribution amp, a bandpass filter, and some splitter networks. All very nicely done.

Hey man. Whats the best way to start wirh rf. I have a respectable lab set up but no rf gear. Should i start wirh the ham license first?

Wonder what it looks like on a spectrum analyzer.

Seeing this reminds me of the bgy133 phillips modules,75mw in 15 watts out.i use to have a hellva station until the field guy found me.he took pictures and said it was greatest illegal station he had ever seen.true story.that was about 1998 or 2000 when i got my letter to cease broadcast.funny note he was a hecka of a nice guy😃

That brings back memories of using a stereo encoder made from a 4053 and 4060 IC fed in to a simple PLL circuit, in to a 1watt amplifier board, then a 20W Philips PA module from a Pye Westminster that was fed in to a PYE A200 linear amp, the old PMR Band M1 which was ex gas board on 106MHz and ideal for putting out 70Watts, it used to take 13Amps at 13.8v so run off a car battery. That all went to a home made slim jim antenna measuring just over 2m tall on a pole. Due to lack of experience and forgetting to put adequate RF filtering after the PLL, it wiped out most of 88-108MHz for 5 miles but was heard over 40miles away! Good times. I always wanted to try Medium Wave but only managed 2Watts!

Hey there. I worked in radio for 45 years in the USA and actually owned three stations. What you have looks like an "FM exciter", a liw powered transmitter that generates a "composite FM" signal that's designed to be used with an HPA (high powered amp) that can amplify the wattage to a level necessary for a commercial FM station. Good idea to not use it on the air, but I did enjoy your test. I also enjoyed your narration; you have a pleasing voice! Be well!

I did enjoy that mate. It takes me way back to just beyond my "High School" days, when me mate (A professional radio -station engineer) was quite into the same thing. His house bedroom was virtually a working FM radio station. He used to take me on Friday night drives down Main Street of our little city (which had ONLY 4 "REAL" radio stations). Because of our isolated location. Everybody was constantly engaged in "Station -Hunting" as they paused before the "RED" light. It was extremely gratifying to us when they discovered "OUR" station playing a 1960's format (Complete with P.S.A.'s and commercials. In addition to the R.F. equipment he also had a professional "Insta-Cart" system that gave it that "Professional Sound". I think it was 30 Watts he was pushing and I devised a "Touch-Tone" control decoder for it so It could be hastily shut -off from either the car, or from ANY Land -Line telephone. I'm guessing... but I believe "YOURS" was built (OVER THERE). Reason being is the frequency you displayed on the "Baofeng" At 106.4 Mhz (I believe). Well it's a little known fact BUT... For some reason, all radio station frequencies (On Your Side Of the Pond) have frequencies that end in "EVEN NUMBERS" (2-4-6-8), to the right of the decimal. And "OURS" end in "ODD NUMBERS" (1-3-5-7)! Weird HUH ? Hi-Hi... Not so weird. I'm sure they did that "On Purpose" Right! Take care mate, your lots of FUN. Great presentation. Jeff 8:44

Would have been great if you could have recorded the audio direct somehow for us to hear the quality of it, would be interesting to compare to any other ones
