I would like to be able to listen to signals from my radio room (scanner, FM BCB via attic antenna, etc) via a portable radio while working around the yard. Max distance I would like to span from the radio room is around 300’. Unless I take some special steps the signal would also need to pass through a couple walls in my house. Decent audio fidelity would be nice but may not be essential. I have dc to light pocket sized analog radios that could be used for reception.
I don’t want to spend too much, maybe ~$100. What are my options? I tried a Bluetooth headset (that was likely class 3 low power) that was not designed for range and it gets only get 30-50 feet.
I have thought about the following but do not if they are worth pursuing.
