When I tried it, I never got a hint of a signal out of it. It might be because I'm failing to configure it, but considering I got fmrx working.... that's probably not the case.
for the fans of reckless experimenting....

if you engage a TX w/o antenna attached - you may potentially end up blowing the RF transistors, if they arent removed along with the tx antenna

more possible sideffects: high power consuption
(device gets warm ..until the transistors or chips are blown)

ps: dont touch the RF circuits unless youre an engineer with calibration tools at hand.
