Biff Burger Radio?

J

jefflaurence

I have had some amazing success with a little Part 15 transmitter made by Chez Radio. It is mounted on a caboose near an antique mall and it runs (most of the time) a program length commercial loop for the mall, and it's vendors. Really an amazing little unit that gets out quite well in about a 1-2 mi radius from the mall. Processing makes it clean, loud and quite listenable. Signal is also used for special promotions (craft shows..car shows etc) I run it in trade for RV space, and space in the caboose for a small production studio. Crazy station reminds me of WAPE in it's technical sound.

Does Biff Burger in St. Pete still do it's weekly car show? Could they support a small radio outlet,and eventually stream some real oldies online interspersed with spots for the restaurant? Might be a cool marketing tool that would cost nearly nothing, and generate some renewed interest.
 
Biff Burger would be a great location for a Part 15 station. They still draw quite a crowd on bike night, and a properly installed x-mitter would provide plenty of entertainment for the residential area behind the restaurant. :)
 
Hey Jeff, Show us some pics of your operation. I run a part 15 where I work and at home. I am using a Rangemaster at both locations but always love to look at other station setups. ;D
 
This week it is being moved to another caboose closer to the road. Really a great place for the mast mounted antenna. And the metal roof serves as a fine (and totally legal) ground plane system. I heard your station near San Antonio..pretty great range..this Chez Radio transmitter is much the same concept. I will shoot some pics as soon as we relocate. Gotta do it soon. Leaf peeper season is here.

Who can I contact at Biff Burger? I can get them up and running for food trade!
 
Get lots of trade Jeff! Bet you could get Hank Jr. to cut a theme song for you..."All my hungry friends are coming over tonight!"

Mike...will work for Biff Burgers! ;D
 
Shouldn't we wait until the whole "MNF-Golf-Gate" thing blows over first, before considering using Hank's services? :eek:

This thread is making me hungry. ::)

Hey Barnum's rule about no such thing as bad publicity applies here. Maybe the Dixie Chicks would cut one too!
