Introduction: Cast FM Radio LONG RANGE With Rashpberry Pi ONLY!!
I everyone, yes I'm back to "teach", pasts a lot of time since the last instructable that I write but I was learning more for "teach" you more.So Let's start.
Many of you shold are thincking about mudules and other components that we need...No away, we just need a RPi and piece of wire, and internet conection.
Supplies
- Rashpberry Pi 1,2,3,4 /A, B, 0/
- Internet conection.
- A jumper wire or more
Step 1: Prebaring RPi
Conect your Rashpberry to a monitor or TV throgh the HDMI cable.
Conect a USB mouse.
Conect a USB keyboard.
Turn on the television and set the corret HDMI input.
conect to Rashpberry an 2A power suply with 5VDC to micro USB socket.
Your pi shord show you a lots of coulors.
NOTE:Yo may need to install the OS befoure this steps you can see how here.
Step 2: Install PiFmAdv.
The PiFmAdv is a library created by "miegl" and let you cast FM radio from your Pi .
Open a terminal window and type (or copy-paste):
sudo apt-get install libsndfile1-dev
When finished type this, line per line:
git clone https://github.com/Miegl/PiFmAdv.git
cd PiFmAdv/srcmake cleanmake
When finished you can run the code with:
sudo ./pi_fm_adv
But you will not here anything, jus a clear signal on 87.6MHz beacause it is not playing anything.
Step 3: Use the PiFmAdv.
Press Ctrl+c to stop. And Enter:
sudo ./pi_fm_adv --audio sound.wav
Now you hear a voice on the radio!!
You can download a music from internet in .wav format move it into the PiFmAdv directory, and play it with:
sudo ./pi_fm_adv --audio yourMusic.wav
Step 4: More Usage.
For more functions you type:
sudo ./pi_fm_adv
followed by the functions that you want to use.
You can find it on GitHub page of "miegl"
Step 5: Attention!
Attention!Don't cast your signals over other signals of radiophony stations this action is punished by Law.
Another ATENTION!!Cast signals without a autorisation may be forbiden by your local law, so be carefull with what you do.
I'M NOT RESPOSABLE FOR YOUR ACTS!
Step 6: Extra!!Extra!!
If in your radio you get sound but it looks to be too slow you can correct this by runing:
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
and then scroll to the end and add:
gpu_freq=250
or
gpu_freq=255
and then save and reboot
