I might’ve been a bit optimistic on the range… I think it’s more like 10 to 15 feet. Definitely designed to be as close to the radio as possible, which shouldn’t be a problem in most cases.

My first car, which I got in 1982, was a 1972 AMC that only had AM radio. I used an AM transmitter in the car, attached to the headphone output (very low) of a cassette player. Later in life, I figured out what you are doing now- giving new life to old tube radios. Excellent video!

I built an AM transmitter as a Radio Shack educational Mod-U-Kit back around late 1960's. Really cool and these kits were a big part of getting me interested in electronics. The kits were pretty basic and not high audio quality but it worked. And at that time it cost (I think) around $8-10. Pity Radio Shack isn't around any more to foster young imaginations.

THis is REALLY cool! I've been looking for something like this. We have a couple of old tube radios from the 1940s/1950s that still work, and we've always wanted to play old radio shows through them (like The Shadow, Inner Sanctum, etc).

So long as it wouldnt bring the FCC to my door, I’m on board with this!

We surely need a blast back to the past. All AM has on it nowadays, is talk 👄 shows. Radio 📻 was so much better 😌, back in the 1970's. It was such a pleasure to turn on the radio, and sit down to an evening ball game 🏑. It would be so cool to broadcast as if it's the 1940's. Your friend, Jeff.

My first thought was "I wonder if there is an FM equivalent?" The transmitter certainly looks nice and appears to work well. I wrote this before the video had finished and you answered my question. An FM transmitter demo would be interesting too.

That AM transmitter is really cool, Record-ology. I bought a portable battery-powered FM transmitter for $12 about 25 or more years ago from a dollar store, but obviously, an FM transmitter would be useless for vintage radios from the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s which is why that AM transmitter you demonstrated is such a great gadget. :)

those transmitters are cool the range isn't the best but the sound quality is good i like to use my talking house am transmitter with my cheap tube amp and cd changer hooked up to it to listen to my vintage radio shows on my restored 1939 zenith console radio and my other sets

I was on a whatnot auction last year. This lady showed a box full of old radio and tv glass tubes. I bought them from her because she said she’d throw them out if no one bought them. I couldn’t bear for her to throw them out. Do you know anyone who needs old radio glass tubes?
