Introduction
Thank you for purchasing one of the fine products made by DECADE
transmitters. Before using it, please read this manual carefully in order to obtain
the best possible results from your transmitter.
Description
The CM-10 / LT-100 is a consumer grade low power FM transmitter operating
in the commercial FM band (88.1 - 107.5 MHz). It is especially designed for in-
house broadcasting, gyms and fitness centres and small rooms for a variety of
entertainment, hearing assistance, translation, and information applications. Its
excellent RF and audio performances, small size and ease of use make the
CM-10 / LT-100 stand out from all the other consumer grade FM transmitters
on the market.
Operation
1 - Extend the telescopic antenna.
2 - Connect a line level audio source to the line input, or a microphone to the
microphone input.
3 - Use the Up and Down push buttons to select transmitting frequency.
4 - Using an FM receiver tuned to the transmitting frequency, adjust the line
level or microphone level in order to obtain a good sound on the receiver.
The sound level at the receiver should be loud enough, but not too loud to
avoid disortion.
