Fm antenna wiring diagram. The fm band runs from 88 to 108 mhz and dipole antennas amplify a center frequency with the amplification factor decreasing on either side of the center frequency. Connect blue wire from antenna to the switched antenna wire from radio normally blue as shown in figure 2. Pin configuration of transistor 2sc2570 is shown in the fm antenna booster schematic. Wire a new car antenna with help from a car audio industry professional in this free video clip.
But if you want to cover hole fm band then simply make it for 98 mhz which is the center of the fm band. Wiring a new car antenna typically requires you to begin by removing the old one. B the red power wire from antenna can be connected at fuse block. However for this application no noticeable.
In the diagram each leg of the dipole antenna is joined to the feeder. Finally place your antenna as high up and as close to the nearest station as possible. How to make a simple good performing and well matched vhf coax folded dipole antenna for receiving fm radio and tv signals. The circuit is using two transistors to increase signal gain to good level.
A radios with switched antenna wire. I connect this. Coil l2 is similar to l1 but has only three turns. Input coil l1 consists of four turns of 20swg enamelled copper wire slightly space wound over 5mm diameter former.
The circuit is using two tunable. I use this one with my videoaudio transmitter i made. The outer shield is connected to earth and the antenna is balanced. It is tapped at the first turn from ground lead side.
This is because coax is what is termed an unbalanced feeder ie. Connect coaxial cable from antenna to radio. Below is a schematic of a tunable fm antenna booster or fm antenna amplifier circuit which can be used to amplify the faint or distant fm signals. To make an fm antenna using speaker wire start by splitting 3 feet of wire and arranging it to form a t shape.
Strictly speaking a balun should be used when coax or coaxial cable is used. This type of antennas are called half wave dipole antenna which is best for a single frequency. This can either be open wire twin feeder or coax can be used. Fm antenna booster circuit diagram.
Therefore you need to use 98 as the center frequency to maximize your antenna function. Next strip the bottom 2 inches of insulation from the wire. For example if you want to receive a fm radio station on 103 mhz so you have to make the antenna for 103 mhz with the help of calculation. L1 and l2 are 1 turns of 20 enameled wire wound on a 38 diameter mandrel.
