FIGURE 1: HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
Your PFM System has two principal parts: the Transmitter and the
Receiver. Much like a miniature radio station, the Transmitter and
microphone pick up the sounds you want to hear and broadcast
them over an FM radio signal. The receiver and earphone are used
to pick up the broadcast up to 30 meters (98.4 feet) away.
