You can now clone the repository. A script (install.sh) is there for easy installation. You could inspect it and make steps manualy in case of any doubt. You can note that /boot/config.txt should be prompt to be modified during the installation. If it is not accepted, **rpitx** will be unstable.
```sh
git clone https://github.com/F5OEO/rpitx
git clone https://github.com/KubaPro010/rpitx2
cd rpitx
./install.sh

Plug a wire on GPIO 4, means Pin 7 of the GPIO header ([header P1](http://elinux.org/RPi_Low-level_peripherals#General_Purpose_Input.2FOutput_.28GPIO.29)). This acts as the antenna. The optimal length of the wire depends the frequency you want to transmit on, but it works with a few centimeters for local testing.
