CAUTION 

                      2. Do not pass the antenna near the TX190 or the audio cables; this could add undesired noises to the broadcast.

Connecting the Antenna

For a low cost antenna, we recommend standard "dipole" FM antenna from any radio equipment which looks like 2 radiators in calculate 
length 75/freq(MHz), example: At frequency of 100MHz, the length of each radiator will be 0.75m.
Many antenna designs are also available on the internet.

                                                                                                                       Warning 
Some of the commissioned items, particularly transmitters, require an operating license.

 It is the Customer's responsibility to check relevant laws, regulations and directives regarding licensing and putting into service any 
goods commissioned by Tugicom. The Customer agrees to defend, 
indemnify and hold harmless Tugicom, it's employees and agents, from and against any claims, actions or demands, including without 
limitation legal and accounting fees, alleging or resulting from the improper or unlawful use of goods commissioned by Tugicom.

Finally - Make it work

is connected to the XLR inputs. 
Turn on the power supply connected to the TX190.
After the power supply switched on, the TX190 will perform a power up sequence with a SELF TEST, display should show:

When power up and self test are done, the TX190 starts an on-air delay, of 20 seconds.
the display will show:

After the on-air delay, if the TX190 is locked the RF output will be enabled and the display will show:

In order to change the frequency, both buttons should be pressed for safety reasons and the TX190 will change to “Frequency Setup” 
mode and the display will show:

Using Up or Down buttons, change to the desired frequency, when desired frequency is chosen, after 2 seconds of delay, the new frequency 
will be saved and the frequency change procedure will start, the display will show:
