Flying in the face of conventional wisdom, the dedicated experimenters over at makeRF.com have hacked the can with simple mods to deliver a 1/4 watt AM radio transmitter.
With a properly loaded wire antenna and a good RF ground, the modded can transmitter just might get out a bit.
makeRF.com put together a nice, three-part tutorial to walk you through the project. Next, we'll link you back to some of our most popular posts on antennas and grounds to complete the picture.

1.0 MHz Full Can Crystal Oscillator, used in the above project
-
LM386 Low Voltage Audio Power Amplifier (Quantity 5 each, in case you fry one), used at the modulator above
-
Small Electronic Circuit Test Board Breadboard, a great protoboard for this project
-
Color-coded, insulated Breadboard Jumper Wires 140Pcs, to make the connections easily
