Mount Tuned How to rebroadcast outside ambient fm radio signals into a sealed building?
we work in an enclosed building that we cannot receive radio signals from outside. we also cannot drill holes in the ceilings or walls to run an antenna cable. we do however have one small sealed window to transmit through. any idea's ?. would like to be able to tune the entire FM broadcast band from seperate radios. one radio being able to tune in one station while yet another listening to another.......................... not a prison however it feels like one sometimes. We don't have a PC avalable and we want local FM stations only. Not satellite radio.
while satellite radio is an option. It however rebroadcasts only one station at a time. What I want to do is rebroadcast ALL stations simultaneously within the building.
Isn't there a way to mount an inside/outside antenna through glass mounts and also maybe using a signal booster to increase received signal then retransmit the signal somehow ?
You must be in a very heavy building. FM broadcasts usually have no problem getting inside even steel clad buildings.
Roofs usually have vents on them, including ventilation vents. Or maybe there is an exhaust vent. Perhaps you could get an antenna wire inside the building by using one of these vents. A larger receive antenna inside the building may do the job. Is there anyplace you could try doing this. If this isn't allowed, does your building have an attic or crawl space above the ceiling? Perhaps you could mount an FM antenna in that space if it exists to hide it for aesthetics reasons.
There are "boosters" such as you describe for cell phones so maybe there is one for commercial FM. Call a couple of the FM stations you want to listen to and see if their engineering department has any suggestions.

Suspension Tuning: a Guide
Your ride may look hot and even have a powerhouse under the hood. However, without the right suspension, your ride is no more than second best. Regardless of how much power you have under the hood, a tuned suspension is vital. Without the right suspension, adding too much power to your car can be detrimental. A finely tuned suspension will keep your tires where they are supposed to be: on the road. Additionally, a good suspension will reduce body flex and roll through turns, resulting in faster times, less under steer and other benefits.
So, what do you need to tune your suspension? What items are included in the suspension? Here are the answers to a few of those questions.
First, you should start by lowering your ride height. Coilovers offer you the best way to do this. However, if you purchase lowering springs, make sure you get a camber kit to keep your alignment in check. Coilovers will let you adjust your ride height as needed, unlike lowering springs, which provide a fixed height.
Second, you'll need to invest in a good set of sway bars. Sway bars are positioned under the vehicle and tie the two sides of your suspension together. OEM sway bars are usually very thin and somewhat flexible, often consisting of a single bar. Aftermarket sway bars are much thicker, providing much greater stability during turns and reducing body roll, as well as under steer.
Third, you will need to invest in strut bars (also called strut tower bars). These bars go under the hood and span the distance between your strut towers. They provide additional rigidity and stability to you ride. You can also purchase rear strut bars, which will tie the rear shock/strut towers together for similar benefits.
Tie bars should be the third thing you invest in. These mount below the car and tie the control arms to the chassis. As with strut bars, these provide greater rigidity and stability during cornering.
Arm bars provide the same benefits as tie bars; spanning the gap between control arms, as well as anchoring them to the chassis.
Pillow ball mounts can also be used to enhance your steering and suspension. The ideal time to install these is during the lowering process. They take the place of the standard rubber strut tower bushings and provide a smoother turn, eliminating any judders or jumping.
