FM transmitters and antennas

Where does the signal go after it leaves the exciter?

• Transmitter
• STL
• Transmission Line
• Antenna

Where does the signal go after it the transmitter?

• Transmitter
• STL
• Transmission Line
• Antenna

Where does the signal go after it gets through the transmission line?

• Transmitter
• STL
• Transmission Line
• Antenna

At what point does the signal get its full effective radiated power?

• Transmitter
• STL
• Transmission Line
• Antenna

What factors are NOT important to calculate ERP?

• Transmitter power output
• Studio to transmitter link
• Transmission Line efficiency
• Antenna power gain

What method do you use to calculate ERP?

• Add all: transmitter power, line efficiency & antenna gain
• Multiply all: transmitter power, line efficiency & antenna gain
• Subtract the line efficiency from both powers
• Divide the transmitter options from the antenna

Should your transmitter output represent the full power of your station (matching your license)?

• No. That number will be affected by the effiency of the line and the gain of the antenna
• No. That number will be affected by the gain of the antenna
• Yes. That should be the same number coming from the antenna

What range does the FCC allow for you to vary from  your licensed power output?

• 85 to 100%
• 90 to 105%
• 90 to 110%
• No fluctuation is allowed

What does the FCC look at for your required power output?

• Transmitter output
• Effective Radiated Power (from antenna)
• Transmission Line efficiency
• Antenna power gain

Which part does the dehydrator serve to protect most directly?

• Transmitter
• Transmission line
• Antenna
• STL
