Hi.
Well of course a TV pantry transmitter would add some reality to the day. The Hedghog and Aurora go a few feet with a simple dipole, you get a bit more range on band 3 as you can cut the dipole more accurately.
I've got an old distribution amplifier that feeds into a passive splitter for 16 outlets and it gives out a fair old signal, have no idea of the level but with a few feet of wire from the output it goes a few tens of yards.
A number of years ago it was fed to a band 3 yagi and on CH9 it went a couple of miles, that experiment was short lived and now as a licensed Amateur I don't even consider doing such a thing..... It was rather fun though.
