To broadcast anything legally in this country you need a licence from Ofcom, these are not cheap or even easy to get hold of, just ask Vodaphone/O2/Orange etc. how much their 3G licences cost them! Sorry to put a dampner on your plans, you could always start an internet radio station, I think that could be a bit easier. Cheers m8y, p.s. how's the A32?

Possible? Yep. Buy one of the chinese mp3-to-car-stereo transmitters, some of them can broadcast 1/4 mile in free air (my brother was following 3-400 yds behind my car when I had one and was still tuned into my ipod quite happily!)

Legal? Defo not. That's why the ones sold in the UK are strangled power-wise, so they don't interfere with standard licence-holder's broadcasts. The only legal possibility is to broadcast in the free 430ish MHz band, but then no one can hear you!

Actually... Possible? Yes. Legal? Not without a licence.

Now we're going somewhere!...only joking! So, put simply...no. Oh well! Looks like Internet Radio is the way forward for me!

And this Arcam thing is making me feel like a Volvo driver...don't single me out!!! : ) Actually they hold a beat very well I am proud to announce (oh yes the A32 is superb Diamond Joe...just running her in nicely!). Well I thought I would do it on CB or Amateur radio, but when I saw the 500hz-2.2khz frequency response...it would hardly be audiophile quality! he he he
