FM radio interference from planes
The sender/generator of interference is required to take
steps to mitigate such and the others are expected to adjust
their antennas and equipment as needed. But that
presupposes that the transmitter is working with Part 15 and
is not a knock-off or non-certified device. Also, I'm not
trying to answer the question, I said he MIGHT be in
violation. I have not read Part 15 in the last few months
and I am not a ham or radio technician.
My original answer/question was about using a wire or radio
to get the desired signal from his PC to the FM transmitter.
If it is a wire and it is not properly shielded with good
grounds at both ends, it could be acting as an antenna input
to the FM. A wire will bring more signal, with less loss
than a WiFi, which should be well shielded.
