If he is broadcasting and his power is above the proper
legal range, he MAY be in violation.

Again, since it seems you didn't catch it the first time I wrote it:

Assuming he's using an off-the-shelf device intended for the use in which
he's applying it, that's extremely doubtful

He should be sure the
FM transmitter he has, has an FCC number and is not causing
any interference with the neighbors.

Whether he is causing any interference with the neighbors is irrelevant. As
long as it's approved by the FCC (and any off-the-shelf device intended for
the use in which he's applying it would be), the neighbors are required by
law to accept any interference (just as he and I and other people in similar
situations are required to accept interference from nearby AM transmitters).


If it is a part 15 device (very low power no license required. This
includes the wireless mikes, remote speakers, remote weather stations,
WiFi computer networks, and a whole bunch of other *stuff*) the
*required* sticker on the back says two things. He *may not* cause
any interference and has to accept any he receives.
