See if your radio will take an external antenna.  If so, then grab some wire and string it around, and as high as you can.

Spectrum analyzer.  See Berkeley Varitronics Systems BUMBLE BEE below has a handheld tool for wireless LAN frequencies of 2.4 GHz.  You can get other instruments for other frequencies -- some spectrum analyzers will frequency sweep.\n\nA very low cost solution, although not quantative, is to use a portable AM radio tuned away from a station and the volume turned up -- carry this around the room or use from your car's radio.\n\nSee the US Frequency Chart below.

Nearby geographical (or other) blockage may be obstructing the radio signal. Things that could block signal are (but not limited to): mountains, hills, trees, houses, walls, etc. Hope this helps. (If it's just one station it may just be distance from the broadcast location.)\n-www.memeluke.tk

I have this little handy thing, you plug it into any standard head phone jack and it broadcasts about 30 feet or so on a station of your choice. It's called the Belkin TuneCast FM II. You can get it in white or black. It works pretty good, runs on 2 AAA batteries or wall outlet.\n\nhttp://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=166893

probably there are service providers in your area that can offer you WiFi connections across those 10kms with no complexity.\nIf you are trying to do it by yourself, you will need microwave antenas aligned in a careful way at every point which you want to provide conectivity and repeaters, so wireless users can detect those signals

Broadband spectrum of non- regular pulses from 10 Hertz to\n200 KiloHertz in bursts of alternating frequency ranges\nof high/low,  to cover the entire human ear range of\nsounds, in a manner that is not consistent with other\nsounds, such as the regular pulse of CD/radio/MP3 speakers within a passenger vehicle playing music, and as diverse\na range so that people with a gap in one or more frequency ranges will pick up the other frequencies, and...\nirregular enough that the pulsing does not combine in a\nheterodyne-type of mixture with road tire noise, heater/airconditioning blower fan pulses, and composite road /drive train/wind noise to creat a harmonic blend that is dampened. Irregularity is a key to increase the awarness time. Alternating high/low frequencies means that the low frequencies travel well through the heavy frame members, and \nhigh frequencies travel thorough lighter areas of vehicle construction. Expensive automobiles have heavy ( weighted) padding glued to many interior car sections to cut out road noises - and it works. They also have lighter styrofoam and composite materials filling air pockets to dampen the low frequency road and drive train "throbs" comming from the engine compartment. I have had the radio on an alternative music station with synthesizers blasting unusual\nfrequencies, and much to my horror, glanced in my mirror to find an ambulance behind me trying to get my attention. It was not until I turned off the radio that I heard the pathetic BEE BAW of the siren. ... Locomotives use two or three different frequencies, which are quite LOW on the human audio scale, and these low frequencies can be heard MILES away. Transports, again use two or three lower frequency blasts from air horns, and again, the lower frequencies can vibarate right through most well insulated vehicles. The "standard" pathetic BEE BAW two tone regular patterned, weak siren common today is too narrow a region of the human range, too regular, too weak, and easily blocked by any expensive vehicle's sound insulation. Turning on any music can totally obliterate the noise.... Much better technology can be employed, ... and should be!\n How come I can hear some kids punked out stereo system BOOMing 2 city blocks away, as the car races towards me, and I can't hear an ambulance that is sitting on my back bumper?\nGo figure.

Cheap receivers are possible.  Take AM radio, for example.  It is very wasteful of bandwidth compared to a digital transmission.  However, you can receive AM with a simple envelope detector.  You can receive AM with a "crystal radio"  constructed with only a diode, a coil, a capacitor, and a pair of headphones.

In ur case the only way to increase the reception is to change ur PCI card to another Pci cardwith antenna. if that doesn't do good, place one antenna at the top of ur house. These antenna's are available easily in the market. and i think doesn't cost much

what do u mean "without a phone line"?\nu can improve your reception by making sure there is is as less as possible between transmitter and receiver. u could buy a wifi booster like  http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=48744&doy=21m11&C=SEO&U=strat15\n\nit will increase your reception of around 30% more....

don't know if this will help by try http://www.zoneradio.com/wkit little back ground:if you are familiar with the author Steven King? He owns the station, try it if you like!

That depends on the quality of your total station.  Consult the owners guide.

Try to listen to that station with Winamp or Windows Media Player

I'll picture it for you...years ago when all the radios were AM Amplitude Modulation...when you drove under high voltage power-lines..you would hear static...with FM Frequency Modulation this will not happen..Higher Frequency.\n\nI hope this helped

get it made fm a project shop.u'll get the project report along wid it  !
