How to use the CZE-05B FM Transmitter

[@TheCymbalProject]

Recommends Winamp: gets instant thumbs up.

[@spbarnes8957]

Hey mannnn, Great! I just recently received model CZE-7C and the setup process was perfect, on-point and straight forward. Thanks!

[@jerrykrinock]

We are considering this to extend our P.A. system to remote speakers. We would like to use it on Low Power (100 mW) since this will be sufficient, and legal in the USA. But it must operate without human intervention since many people use the P.A. system. Does the unit remember the power level *and* frequency setting during a power outage? And will it power up automatically when power is restored, or must a human push the "power on" button to make it start?

[@stephenbrown1675]

After you select the High or Low power, when you press the power button, it sets the lowest transmitting frequency allowed. Pressing the power again sets the highest transmitting frequency allowed. Pressing the power button again will put it back to normal operation, and then you set the frequency you want to transmit on.

[@Derathor_]

The two frequencies you see after setting the 'H' or 'L' setting are the upper and lower limits of operation of the radio. It's really just setting where, under normal adjustment of the center frequency, the increase or decrease of the center frequency would "wrap around". Refer to the manual. If you set the upper to 100MHz and the lower to 88.5MHz, then under normal operation (i.e. not holding down the power button before plugging in), the radio won't let you adjust to above 100MHz or below 88.5MHz. I was also confused by the manual, but after some experimentation I figured out what it meant :P.

[@MarkAyt]

Thanks for taking the time to explain that to me, at the time of making this I was pretty ignorant to how the transmitter is correctly supposed to be operated haha. Once again thank you I'll keep that in mind whenever i'm using it now.

[@Derathor_]

@@MarkAyt also thank you for making the video in the first place! I found it because I was confused, so I'm sure you've also helped others.

[@marcelomnzs]

Please, if you use a microphone to speak on the transmitter and hear your voice at the same time on reciever, does it have any delay? even if it's minimal? I am looking for something similar to use for corner return, and there can be no latency in this transmission. thanks for listening!

[@MarkAyt]

You're welcome, anytime I have used this transmitter there has been virtually no delay.

[@computerkid1416]

When the sad day comes when analog radio is turned off (hopefully not soon, as there's not as much of a need to do so compared to TV), these will come in handy for continuing to use vintage and other FM radios.

[@MarkAyt]

Very true, Hopefully it wont be a long time yet before we have to see that happen though.

[@ACE.GENE.ROCKER.GEORGIOU]

Radio can't be turned off but when big licences holders move away the radio airwaves will be used by those who knows how to broadcast on it 😉👌

[@goodman08]

Hi! Can you tell a bit about the quality you feel about this Transmitter? The quality of the sound this transmitter deliver to youer radios? Do you know anything about the audio/sound-quality fro the transmitter,,,, if you connect it to a cheap rado and to a expeceive radio (from the AUX-cable), vil you have the same audio-quality from both of the radioes? I like to try this with a DAB+ radio.....

[@MarkAyt]

The sound quality from this transmitter is very good, sounds great on my radios! and I do not know if the quality will be the same if you connect the two radios together.....but you can always try and see how it goes!

[@WVMMRH]

Thanks so much..the manual that came with the unit was really confusing..the transmitter is up and running and sounds great,but i will for sure buy a better antenna.don't know why the anyone would say this video was no help..it resolved my issue for sure.Thanks .

[@MarkAyt]

Thanks very much for your kind comment, I do admit myself that the video is not as informative as it could have been but I'm glad it helped resolve your issue, Thanks again.

[@Jazzy-K]

Your video is not as helpful as comments below but if not your video then there would be no comments. THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!! Im going to get one.

[@MarkAyt]

Jacek Klein Thank you

[@bluespringsbaptistchurch]

What is the range of the antenna that comes with the unit? 300 ft. or further?

[@roberthansen2008]

Honestly I'm able to get about 1 and 1/2 Chicago style blocks. It does say 1,320 ft which is like 1/4 of a mile. But you need a real good radio to receive that. I had a friend of mine in the car that said he could get it to about where I thought it would go. It does a pretty good job.

[@SuperCartoonist]

What kind of antenna do you use then? I would like to get the right kind if you can be more informative in your video please.

[@thra5herxb12s]

This is what I use. Great value for money starter antenna. Gives around 16 miles radius with my 30 w tx and around 3 miles with the 5 watt. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/15M-Cable-Powerful-1-4-Wavelength-GP-Antenna-Set-for-0-5-30-Watt-FM-Transmitter/122714090859?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

[@J3sus1sL0rd1]

You also have Ryobi 18 volt battery on your desktop. As far as low wattage tunable FM Stereo transmitter. Your stock antenna is just good enough for within your household range. By using homemade 1/2 wave Dipole with VHF coaxial to TNC connector.

[@mrdude3697]

is it connected with normal 3.5mm audio male-male cable?

[@84ohms8]

Hi, any idea how to get rid of the static noise on these FM transmitters?

[@hakunchristiansen9745]

Yes, to get rid of static noise you can put the transmitter on iron or metal. Or lay it on something or move it around. I get rid of static noises. Because the transmitter is made of steel it must be grounded to something iron or metal to get rid of noises. Other options you can do is replace the mini jack cable with a new better quality instead. Other thing is, check if you're power supply is grounded

[@robingermon4071]

How good are the harmonics on the CZE-05B

[@roberthansen2008]

I have the same thing but it's got a different label on it. But they all probably made by the same company and then they sell them all under different names. But this thing works. Plug an MP3 player into it and you can give your neighbors or anyone else some decent music to listen to.

[@مهندس_علي]

Hello my friend .. How far do I send this fm

[@djk2509]

I got this transmitter and used it with the black antenna and I tried the rang it was kinda crap so I got a better ANT for it the range did improve with the better ANT from 0.5 of a mile to 1mile and I wanted to get out more than just 1mile so I went and got the CZE_7C FM transmitter witch has more power L and H the L is only 1watt and the H is 7watts I've only ever used it on the 7watt setting and I got with it a ANT magmount witch is on my house roof 45ft up and with 7watts power it cover my home town and a little bit more it got around 4.5 to 5miles it seems to go that half a mile thuther on a clear blue sky day not sure why that is but a 4.5miles area is good for me I'm on 87.9FM and all the frequencies between me and the very next station to me are empty so from 88.0 to 89.6 are empty because on 89.7 is BBC R2 I'm in suffolk UK and there not much on fm around here enjoy your broadcasts everyone.

[@techsupport7273]

Range sir for stock antenna?

[@nitrosake]

It is made for people all over the world, that's why it goes down to 76MHz. In Japan, the FM band is from 76 - 95MHz and over that, you'll interefere with their television since the VHF television band is 90-108MHz.

[@MarkAyt]

Thanks for that information, unusual that the Japanese FM band is that low haha.

[@joshbennett1339]

Are you able to set a name so anyone tuning in can see what name is broadcasting?

[@bennewton3560]

Is it legal to broadcast on an FM frequency I recently got a 1 watt transmitter could I legally broadcast?

[@MarkAyt]

Well it depends what country you are in but usually it is legal to broadcast with a 1 watt transmitter, I would recommend looking up the laws for your country on google to be sure though.

[@bennewton3560]

Ok thanks, I live in the UK so hopefully It's legal

[@MarkAyt]

No bother, thanks for your comment!

[@bennewton3560]

thanks

[@ratcliffave]

Ben Newton it has about 1 mile range on 5 watts using the telescopic aerial on the back. So just make sure you pick a clear frequency and you should be ok. Try not to woosh out other radio stations as people will complain to the station and they will try to find you.

[@shoggymix7745]

My friend which sofware that you using? Like i have vitualdj. Nextkast studio playlist i can use one of those to broadcast a fm radio station?

[@MarkAyt]

Thoghi Louis Yes indeed you can use one of those to broadcast your an fm radio station.

[@yaesuft7800]

Good Vid Mark, informative, not as terrible as you make out. Can I ask if you bought the unit from China and if you were hit with import duty or any problems bringing the unit into Ireland?

[@MarkAyt]

Thank you, for the compliment! and yes I bought the unit from china and had no problems importing it into Ireland.

[@forfashire]

Steven McKenna I'm about to buy one on Amazon and it is not coming from china

[@gordongordonplex9455]

I just want to transmit within my 2-story plus basement 6-room house. Can I do that with the small included antenna?

[@gordongordonplex9455]

Oops, I see from another comment that it goes over a mile!! So I guess low power is enough for a house.

[@yorusuyasoul69420]

@Asher lol 😂

[@seancarry8528]

Is there one for everyone in the audience ?

[@MarkAyt]

+Sean Carry unfortunitly no

[@JeromeBaquerel]

thanks, for the very informative video. now i know how to set the frequency from 87.5MHz -108MHz now.

[@MarkAyt]

You're welcome.

[@alkayemediagroup4536]

Thank you for the good video, but does it stay at H (high power when you turn it off/ then on)s you show at 4:35 (also...why is the speaker shown as muted when you first change the power level?

[@MarkAyt]

Yes it stays at High power when you turn it off and then on again, but when you are turning it on again you don't need to hold the power button when putting in the cable. There is no reason for the speaker to be muted, I just hadn't turned it up yet.

[@alkayemediagroup4536]

note the speaker symbol is shown in the image as muted.....when you turned on the H power....

[@MarkAyt]

Al Kohout I don't know why that is.

[@TheLamont2086]

Can multiple radio's pick up the signal???

[@ratcliffave]

Mine came with the telescopic aerial. With the transmitter upstairs I get about 1 mile of clear broadcast on 5 watts. I use mine connected to an iPhone on amazon music. All the tunes come out at the same volume so makes it clearer. My only thing I don't like is you can hear a faint mains hum when no music is playing. But you can't hear it when the music is on.

[@verzen25]

is there any solution to eliminate the humming?

[@kevindavis4709]

You gotta separate the transmitter from audio sources sending audio signal to your transmitter. An electrical feedback is what's causing it cause you have your audio sources right beside the transmitter. Best distance will be six feet or more further away the clearer the signal sounds. I had my radio station 10 years now learned the do's and don'ts plus an outside antenna helps keep out humming.

[@bubbleweed312]

how far can it go?

Great review, very helpful!

@@MarkAyt Hello , what kind of Mic do you use ?

[@J3sus1sL0rd1]

Second Comment: In USA , below 88.1 MHz. was analog television channel 6 until June 12, 2009, nearly all of DTV has gone up to upper frequencies. This means: You'll have a clear and empty frequencies for your greater range on undisturbed channels. For International use, only if you live nearby airports, remember; from 88.0 MHz. is big no, no frequency.

[@MarkAyt]

Thanks a lot for the information!

[@kevindavis4709]

Tube tvs are all gone and smashed 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@FrancisLitanofficialJAPINOY]

Japanese FM frequencies: 76 - 87 MHz. Unless you have your “TV SOUND” radio receivers with you to broadcast.

[@mikeyb0y]

What kind of range does this item get?

[@MarkAyt]

About 1.5 - 2 miles with the ribber duck antenna supplied with the item, although if you have an external antenna you could get about 3 miles. Also it all depends on how high up the antenna is mounted and what the local terrain is like.

[@Alkayemedia]

what external antenna and is there an magnetic mount type for top of car?

[@MarkAyt]

This is the antenna I bought: www.ebay.com/itm/1-4-wave-GP-Antenna-for-5w-7w-15w-FM-Transmitter-BNC-/221927020339?hash=item33abe19733:m:msoAxMAb_avgEfa28zFkHrg and here is a link to one you can put on your car: www.ebay.com/itm/98MHz-Car-fm-antenna-sucker-for-7-30W-FM-Transmitter-3M-coaxial-Cable-TNC-/272025395571?hash=item3f55fa2173:g:0jQAAOSwAYtWKsZY

[@alkayemediagroup4536]

but does it handle the whole freq range??? --its does not say.

[@MarkAyt]

Al Kohout No, I think it is for 98MHz only. But I believe you can cut it to size to change the antenna frequency.

[@arliewelker4674]

why not use virtual dj?

[@scotshabalam2432]

[@verzen25]

hi, could this unit can reach 1km clear audio?

[@MarkAyt]

On the high power setting yes this could easily reach 1km with clear audio!

[@verzen25]

Hi, I bought this one and i received it yesterday, but there is humming problem how to eliminate this?

[@redhourinfantry6117]

I'm trying this on a smart TV to send a signal to wirless headphones that have am and fm, but all I hear is static.

[@WorldWideHipHopVideos]

Try with cable

[@thunderc45]

For some reason after setting to the lower power range my frequency will not adjust.

[@ratcliffave]

thunderc45 mine is the same. What I do is hold the power button in when you turn on the mains power. Select H or L power. Then press the power button once again and you will be at the frequency stage, select what frequency you want, then press the power button again to start the broadcast. You can tell when you are Broadcasting as the fan starts up.

[@Inputmapper]

After you select H/L, the power button takes you to the FREQUENCY RANGE SETUP, everybody including the video here is getting this completely wrong. The first time the frequency is shown you are setting the upper limit so set to 108, press power and now set the low end to 87.8, then press power again, now set your current operating freq. Entering in the operating freq in the 1st and 2nd freq setup will make it so you cannot change freqs because your upper and lower limits will be identical...

[@indiakw15]

thanks sar Best video

[@zenoss5797]

do u need a license

[@GlobalPanda7678]

If you a transmitting on high power you have to if your in USA, but a car cigarette fm transmitter like I have then no

[@Inputmapper]

These directions are all wrong, you dont set the transmitting freq after the first power button press, that is for setting the operating upper and lower limits...

[@ankitsharma5014]

What's its range with gp anttena?

[@MarkAyt]

In my area the range is about 5km with the gp antenna.... through a car radio.

[@ratcliffave]

ankit sharma using the telescopic aerial on the back you will get about 1 mile of clear broadcast. That's with the transmitter upstairs. If it is downstairs you would get about A quarter of a mile. On a clear frequency that is. If you was on a top floor of a tower block 400ft you would get about 10 miles on 5 watts. But even 1 mile you would get a lot of listeners. Look on a map draw a circle from your house 1 mile out, everything in between is a lot of listeners.

[@jamesshahabi5187]

thank you for the video. very helpful. do yo know how can I broadcast a FM channel to another country?

[@MarkAyt]

You're welcome, Thank You. Unfortunately it is not possible to broadcast to another country on with an fm transmitter with power similar to this unless you are very close to the border. am transmitters are capable of transmitting much further distances with equivalent power.

[@ghjay]

how do I get it un muted?

[@ratcliffave]

Matt Collett turn up the volume on the front of the transmitter. Or check volume is up on computer. Better still use an iPhone 📱 on amazon music, you can get any song you want.

[@mrglitch0]

These Chinese things are awful and sprog all over the band and further. The chip that runs the transmitter is only designed to work with nano watts for things like iTripp etc, the BH chip was never designed to run any kind of power, so they create many unwanted harmonics around the band and cause issues. Using them for a period of time will guarantee a visit from the radio police..

[@MarkAyt]

You sure about that? I have had no problems with it what so ever..... I have never gotten any "sprog" from this transmitter.

[@mrglitch0]

Hook it up to a scope and you will see more spikes than a hedgehog. Trust me, they are awful, you're better off investing in a decent transmitter or building a trusted, clean design yourself.

[@ratcliffave]

mrglitch0 if a radio is tuned into your frequency that is too close to the transmitter you will hear your Broadcast all over the band. If you drive about a quarter of a mile away it is fine.
