Well I'm glad to say that I just built my first AM transmitter and it actually worked. If only for about 6 inches away... but it's not finished yet.
2 questions:
Does it make a difference if I use the tiny variable capacitors that you turn with a mini screw driver or if I used a larger one with plates that I see in all the transmitter pictures?
Also, where can I learn how to make a proper antenna? I've heard loop antennas are good but how do I go about making one and attaching it to my circuit?
