Hi All

Ok I know im in the wrong place and the wrong website but I don't know where to start so I came here for advice

Ok here goes, Do anyone know if its possible to transmit a tv signal from a laptop through airwaves to a tv.

Reason being I organise rallys where 200+ people camp and i want to send info to them all from the laptop and with everyone having tvs in the campers / caravans I thought that would be a good way if they could see it on there tv.

And before you say yes I am mad lol

Any info would be great or point me in the right direction

Thanks

Hi there errm whoever you are (didn't fill out the three mandatory fields in your profile - Name/Location/Country),
Welcome to CT DX group.
It is 'possible' to transmit slow scan TV over radio waves, but you would need a licence to do this, which you would have to take/pass an exam to be an amateur radio operator.
I don't know the full details of what is allowed as I do not use that part of the amateur radio hobby, and I don't think you would be allowed to transmit anywhere near the 'regular' commercial TV stations frequencies anyway.
Maybe some more knowledgeable members will reply with more information :) I'm pretty sure you would need more than just a laptop however.
Have you considered streaming video/audio using windows media encoder, that may be a lot easier and free.

Thanks both for the replys

Im 99.9% sure im asking the impossible but worth a try

Regarding facebook we use it all the time for our rallys to communicate with members but when we go racing out in the sticks the phone signal is normally terrible

The reason to communicate with members it to show live timing on tv if possible

Thanks again

Setup a wifi access point with a little webserver? and put the info on a webpage on the server? they could access it with both mobile phones and laptops then.

Any good?
