I have a small 1 watt transmitter. I have a simple goal of using it to
cover my horse so I can tune the same music throughout.

I have tried a variety of antennas to get it to work, but have been
largely unsuccessful. I guess I don't know what I'm doing!

My latest and best antenna is a j-pole I built with copper pipe and
mounted inside my garage. No matter where I place it in my house though
I am simply unable to create a quality signal that carries more than 50
feet.

If anyone is willing to give me some tips I'd be very appreciative.
