Communication is the transfer or exchange of information between two or more parties. An electronic transmitter enables information to be transferred through long distances by the use of relevant electronic circuitry. In previous literature, the power of the transmitter required to cover an area of 5.94 X 106 M2 was found to be 18dBm. In this research, the radio transmitter required to give the output power is designed, constructed and tested. After testing it was concluded that the radio transmitter with an output power of 18dBm with a telescopic antenna placed 10m above the ground and broadcasting at a frequency of 102 MHz can favourably cover the area of 1375m radius.
