In theory, the output of any common low power RF modulator could be hooked to a ham radio type linear amplifier and sent far and wide. The frequency of channel 3 which is 60-66 mhz would be slightly out of the ideal tuned range of such a linear amp and probably quite attenuated. But I bet anything you would get a noise free picture in the house. Problem is the transmit antenna design and the outright total illegality of it all. Your other idea of using a RF distribution amp and stringing wires is much safer but not as much fun. Linear amps were popular in the 40s and 50s until complaints from people who could not hear their table radios or watch their TVs brought FCC scrutiny and enforcement actions. I bet it would be quite hard to find one in working order. Plans for making your own are probably out there somewhere and would not involve huge expense for the parts. I salute you for seeking creative solution. --Tom in Tucson
