The caps arrived today for the problem modulator, I'll recap that and use it for a VHF channel.. Probably 7 or 8..

What would you recommend broadcasting with UHF? just a standard botie Antenna or shango066's method?
Glad you got a working mod. I'd probably go with a UHF bowtie. Odds are at UHF, without a SWR meeter like Shango has, it will be hard to cut the length close enough to optimum frequency/ impedance match for there to be much benefit....But you could try if you are curious, and I could be wrong.
