FM Reciever

[lscott]

Hello LOR Users!

I Am starting my own Christmas Light Display this year! Can anybody lead me in a good direction to finding a good FM receiver?

Do you really mean receiver or did you mean transmitter?  In most cases the receiver end of the radio link is the stereo in your viewers cars.

I got this one last year and it worked perfectly setup on low power.

I've used a CZH-05B FM transmitter since 2010.  The sound quality is excellent, the range is excellent, and the price is BEYOND excellent! 

They are so reasonably priced that I got a second one to use as backup.  Except to test it after it arrived, it hasn't been out of the box.

IMO there's no better value in this entire hobby.

I used one very similar for 4-5 years (CZE-05B).  Bought an EDM transmitter for 2016 and the quality was no better with 3-4x the price tag.  You don't have to spend a fortune on a quality transmitter.  +1 on Georges comment "no better value in this entire hobby"

Lots of past threads on the subject.  Do a search by "transmitter' to find them.  BTW, I've been using an EDM brand one for the past 3 years anbd really happy with it.  It is at a little highter price point thought.
