Can I overlap the range of multiple TransAM-100 transmitters on the same frequency?
Generally, No. Because frequencies are not absolutely exact, two TransAM-100s placed too closely together on the same frequency will interfere with one another and set up an annoying high pitched noise called heterodyne. What happens is, your radio gets confused as to which signal it should tune in to and so it tries to tune into both of the competing broadcasts and the final result is the heterodyne signal or audio flutter. The way to design a non-audio synced system would be to generally plan a coverage area, put up the first unit and determine your coverage area. If you are getting 1.5 miles range then the next transmitter would need to go approximately 3 miles away. (Remember, they transmit in circular patterns) All the cells would be planned depending on the range attainable by the other cells and of course available installation locations. The idea is not to get the transmitters too close together and not too far apart. Too close together and you have to much overlap, resulting i
