I also bought one of those nice looking FM transmitters, wanted to forward stuff to my 12 acres while tractor mowing..

Put a spectrum analyzer on it ...  wondering how clean.


What I found was a signal in the aircraft band MUCH stronger than the carrier in the 90 mc band.   Would not have been a good idea to put this on an antenna!!!!

made it gone....

There is no sports talk FM station in the area.

There are Part 15 FM modulators designed to provide an analog audio input to an FM radio, usually in a vehicle, as well as higher power products that violate Part 15 intended for pirate radio. I've used several of the former to pipe music around my 8 acres and between buildings, and I bought one of the latter hoping for better performance. Instead, I got spurs that trashed the FM band. Never bothered to look for trash elsewhere.

Can you look at its spectrum and/or waterfall? Inexpensive SDRs are a great way to look at all forms of RFI.
