LW/AM/FM/SW/CC RADIO PART 15

Little known to the general public is the right to legally operate an unlicensed LW (longwave), AM, FM, SW (shortwave) or CC (carrier current) radio station as allowed under Part 15 of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) Rules using low-power micro-transmitters. The small devices which enable this kind of operation are available from several suppliers.

A personal home radio station is ideal for listening to streaming radio from your computer on radios located upstairs, downstairs, even outdoors in the yard. It's time this technology becomes better known. Here at KDX1 we operate a streaming radio station which circles the worldround web while inside the Internet Building here in North America we enjoy KDX1 on AM, FM or SW radios tuned to our house frequencies. Long wave and carrier current stations are under construction. At your location it would be possible to link KDX1 from computer to radios throughout your living quarters!

As this web page evolves, we'll post links to equipment suppliers as well as other websites devoted to Part 15 AM radio.

Also, we plan to post information regarding basic, high quality radios.
