Newbie here and we've gotten to the point in our controller build to solder a simple 75cm wire to our FM Transmitter . What kind of wire am I looking for to buy for this? Appreciate any help. Haven't seen any videos of anyone soldering a wire to the transmitter. 
Thanks!

You don't say what kind of FM transmitter, but I bought one of those little bitty transmitters to play with and just soldered on an old piece of doorbell wire.  I'm not an electrical engineer, but I suspect any old wire you have laying around.  Length seems to be more important than type but a piece of around 2 ft will get you started.

I assume you mean wire for an antenna.  It really does not make much difference.
Using LOR (mostly SuperStar) for all sequencing - using FPP only to drive P5 and P10 panels.

Thank you both! There is a link in my original message that shows the FM Transmitter that fits on to the Kulp. Thanks!

What kind of range are you getting from the transmitter?
