- 
-∏-Box Antenna Ready to Broadcast * One Coaxial T [[File:CoaxTbis.jpg]] * One Coaxial female adaptor [[File:CoaxFabis.jpg]] 
- 
-* 2 Coaxial Telescopic Antennas [[File:CoaxAntbis.jpg]] 
-* Coaxial RG 174 wire [[File:Wirebis.jpg]] 
-* 1 GPIO Jumper (needs only 2 slots) [[File:JumperGPIO.jpg]] 
- 
-==== Other Needs == 
- 
-* soldering station 
-* tape 
- 
-= Tutorial = 
- 
-First, prepare the Wire, connect the wire to the coaxial female adaptator. 
- 
-[[File:TTEr2.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-[[File:TTEr5.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-Connect the wire to the GPIO Jumper. 
- 
-[[File:TTEr4.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-Add some tape. 
- 
-[[File:TTEr3.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-The wire is ready, now let's make the antenna 
- 
-open the coaxial T, take off the balloon, disconnect one output, break the cover of the side coaxial output. 
- 
-[[File:OpenTBis.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-cover it back with tape, open slightly the male plug so it can host one telescopic antenna then connect the wire. 
- 
-[[File:GPIOs.png|frame|none]] 
- 
-last, connect the Antenna to the Rasperri Pi on GPIO 4 (ports 7) & GROUND (ports 9) 
- 
-[[File:Antennafinish.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-Ready for transmission ! 
-

- 
-Test transmission with pi-box + dipole antenna made with rigid aluminium tube 
- 
-[[File:800px-Dipolecuivrecable.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-Test transmission with pi-box + dipole antenna made with flexible copper cable 
- 
-[[File:800px-SansAntenne.jpg|frame|none]] 
- 
-Test transmission with pi-box without antenna 
- 
-[[File:800px-Velo.jpg|frame|none]]
