If you are so excited to make your own broadcast, why don't you
start with some content first and spread it wide via Internet.<br>
Streaming even live is waaaaay to cheaper, legal and you can target
hackers all around the globe, not just within reach of your antenna.<br>
If the UHF broadcasting is your goal and interest you will very soon
face FCC (in US) or other regulators (in other parts of the world)
and you basically cannot effectively hide as a pirate... <br>

<div>With the Analog Broadcast system having been switched over in
the US I'd like to take advantage of the empty space and make a
LPTV/HAMTV station at our Hackerspace. We're having a bit of
trouble translating the legal end of things. We have our General
class HAM licenses and we can see HAMTV is often transmitted on
channels 57-60 CATV. <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<div>Some questions that we've been unable to resolve are: </div>
<ul>
<li>
<div>Can we stream YouTube all day long? </div>
</li>
<li>
<div>I realize theres a limitation as far as commercial things
over HAM radio but what about "promotions" using HAMTV? </div>
</li>
<li>
<div>How far are we allowed to transmit? </div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Are the HAMTV bands even necessary to be limited to with
all the freed up analog bandwidth? </div>
</li>
</ul>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Things may have changed a bit now that the bands have opened
up but I cannot find specific information anywhere on the net. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We think we can achieve this using one of these <a

TV Transmitters</a>.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If anyone has the ability to help answer these we could do an
easy tutorial with the other information I've collected and post
it for other Hackerspaces to build their own cheap TV Station.</div>
