short distance fm transmitters?

check this out:

http://www.radiohousetour.com/

this device plugs into the wall inside a house and let's you broadcast a message over fm radio that folks in their car can listen to.

i figure there's got to be a cheaper place to get the equipment, sans all the marketing BS that they sell with it.

any ideas?
