Can church use an FM Transmitter to create a “Drive In” church service?
Due to the Coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreaks, the way people can do Ministry is being changed, at least for the time being. Many Communities decided to implement a different way to do church - Drive-In Church Service. It makes Worship easy, people will be able to pick up speaking and music while staying in their own cars.
How to set up a drive-in church?
Firstly, you need an FM radio transmitter.
In order to broadcast a longer range to cover a full parking lot, you need a remote antenna with a long cable.
And the package includes an AUX cable that allows you to play music through the transmitter from your phone or some other audio system.
Secondly, a radio or car radio receiver to receive songs and speaking.
The transmitter only transmits speaking, music and other audio information, it has no outer speaker, so people need to pick up the speaking and song clearly through a radio at the same frequency. It could be an FM radio like Retekess V113 or the car radio.Finally, set the transmitter works at a blank frequency
You can change the channels on the transmitter from 87Mhz to 108Mhz, however, it is very important for you to find a radio station that is suitable with nothing else coming through it, I believe that you don’t want any kind of radio station and news coming through.
The one thing that constantly comes up is churches asking me what the rules and regulations are concerning having a drive-in church with an FM transmitter. I just want to go over that a little bit. Is it possible to have an FM transmitter that broadcasts to your parking lot? And the answer is yes. There are many transmitters out there.
For the most part, the things that you need to know are this: Technically you’re not supposed to be broadcasting for more than 200 feet from your location of broadcast. The FCC rules have a bit of a gray area and you have to be very careful. The other thing you’re not allowed to do is to pick a frequency that someone else has already on. If you interrupt their frequency, they could file a complaint against you. So be very careful to pick a dead frequency. Another thing that you need to consider is the fact that if you are near a major roadway, technically you’re not allowed to broadcast onto a major expressway or roadway, and so you need to be very, very careful with broadcasting if you’re near a highway or a very busy traffic area. The best thing to do would be to get a little small 15-watt transmitter, pull everybody into your parking lot, set up outside and then broadcast so that everybody inside of their cars could hear it if they turn to that FM frequency.
Actual verbiage from the FCC:
Unlicensed operation on the AM and FM radio broadcast bands is permitted for some extremely low powered devices covered under Part 15 of the FCC’s rules. On FM frequencies, these devices are limited to an effective service range of approximately 200 feet (61 meters). See 47 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) Section 15.239, and the July 24, 1991, Public Notice (still in effect). On the AM broadcast band, these devices are limited to an effective service range of approximately 200 feet (61 meters). See 47 CFR Sections 15.207, 15.209, 15.219, and 15.221. These devices must accept any interference caused by any other operation, which may further limit the effective service range.
You can find these little FM transmitters on eBay or Amazon, various other places and they’re pretty easy. Here is an example of a small FM Transmitter –

I hope the services to come in the next few weeks go well, but be very careful. The FCC is not a group you want to ignore. They don’t take lightly to pirated radio stations. There are severe fines and consequences if you do this this illegally. Make sure you do it correctly. If you have any questions please let us know.
