Patrick, I paid $12.99 for the Talking House transmitter. The Goodwill store had 3 of them. When I plugged it into a ground-fault outlet, it tripped the breaker. It works when pugged into a regular AC outlet. 4 ft wire for a antenna in our den, I could hear it a house or two away on the Escape radio. On the bottom of the transmitter it says that it complies with Part 15 of FCC rules of regulations. Last time I visited the Goodwill store the other two were gone. One sold on e-bay last week for around $32.00.
