FM bug Spy transmitter
Take a look at this fm spy transmitter which can be used as a bug transmitter or as fm bug too. It uses a single IC 74F13, one coil, a capacitor, one trimmer, one resistor and ofcourse one electret mic. This spy bug is so easy to build and can give you a total coverage range of about 3 to 5 meters. You may want to use a small 100mW amplifier to give a little extend transmission range so you can spy from other location.
Please use only 74F13 because 74S13 and the other ones does not work in 88-108MHz range. As antenna you can use a copper wire (>=1mm diameter) and as power supply 4 x1.2 / min.1200mA acumulators which will work for at least 7 days. Use short terminal for components and a good pcb.

how many turns is the coil?

It is a choke coil but you can use 20 turns on a ferrite core. The coil is not so much important in this bug transmitter circuit.

hello..
for this circuit, how about the receiving end? does this circuit transmit at specific frequency? thanks

“Use only 74F13 because 74S13 to work in 88-108MHz range” – so use a FM receiver.
