Create Your Own Radio Broadcast From an Itrip

In this you'll have a working radio "station" of sorts. the range won't be great but it'll work for everyday use.

For this you'll need

-ipod
-itrip and software
-antenna or length of wire
-soldering gun (optional but recommended)
-hot glue gun (optional)
-wire stripper (helpful)

On the top of your itip min you'll notice a sticker like white covering if you pry this up you'll expose the antenna lift this up but be careful if you rip it out your screwed.

Next take the antenna and very carefully remove a bit of insulation from it exposing the wire within. Wire strippers would be useful here but you can use a knife.

Next with your old antenna solder it to the itrip antenna to form a larger antenna.

if you don't have a solder gun you can use some electrical tape but i recommend a solder gun.

an antenna can be substituted for bit of old wire wound around the groves of a wood screw to form an exceptionable coil. make sure to leave a tail on top. this can be slipped in to a fast food drink straw to provide a case.

finally hot glue the whole assembly to the back of your itrip to form a nifty looking device make sure to cover the contact point between the itrip and the antenna with glue to prevent falling part.
