Dave:

Your question, while at first seeming simple to me, I now realize is much
more complex.
I looked at the ebay URL, and one "feature" of the device in question is:
Q. Is there an Antenna?
A. Yes, The Antenna is about 30" long made of thin flexible black wire

I would have NO clue on how to match up any antenna and transmission line to
that!!!

Roy or another of the REAL antenna authorities are your best hope now...
sorry... I am learning...

Warmest regards,
John

Yea I know... it was cheap....

The near 1 watt kit I ordered I plan to "combine" the transmitter and pwer
booster then attach an antenna...


Thanks for all the help
Dave
