Re: FM transmitters? - ERRATA

Vinny Pinto
Hi folks:

One brief note about an errata in my earlier note, below, sent minutes ago:
I accidentally used the term "LF band" in lieu of the term "MF band",
and so, wherever you see the occurrence of "LF", please substitute
"MF". That is what I get for typing fast! Thanks!

with care,

Hi Marc:

I agree, and there is another factor to be possibly considered as
well, since the FM band falls in the VHF range between 88 MHz and 108
MHz: many specialists and experts in the alternative health field
(particularly in the areas of Rife plasma ray beam devices and
similar plasma technologies, electrotherapy devices, "bioenergy"
treatment devices, and also in many niches within the broad realms
known as "radionics" and "psychotronics", actually seem to feel that
most RF frequencies in the range falling between about 400 kHz (i.e.,
just below 0.5 MHz) and about 150 MHz are rather harmless (unless one
is exposed to a great overdose, such as an amateur radio operator
operating with a 2 kW high power transmitter on the HF bands and with
lots of stray RF fields in her shack from equipment and from her
nearby E-field transmitting antenna) and indeed, a number of
electro-therapeutic "alternative healing" treatment devices in the
aforementioned realms deliberately employ frequencies in this range,
particularly at and around the following frequencies:
* 400 KHz to 1.5 MHz
* 14 MHz
* 18 MHz
* 28 MHz
* 120 to 136 MHz
* 150 MHz
Many of these devices bathe the patient undergoing treatment in RF
fields in this frequency range, which encompasses the mid-and-upper
LF range, the HF range and the low-to-mid VHF range.

with care,

Re: FM transmitters?

Hi all,

I received the FM transmitter so that my MP3 player could
broadcast to my car stereo, and have determined that I do
*not* have a bad reaction to this.

However, in addition to being electrically sensitive, I
am somewhat picky about audio quality, and find that the
quality of listening to an MP3 player through an FM
transmitter / FM radio is not very good, so I've decided
that I'm going to do what I should have done in the first
place -- buy a new car stereo with an audio input jack!
