If you need a unit which is type accepted for broadcast use, put an ad in
Radio World magazine and ask around for used FM exciters.  There are a lot
of old tube-type exciters that can be picked up for $200-$500 or so, and
most of them will put a good 10W into a 50-ohm load.  If you don't need 
type acceptance, than your best bet is to build one using the BA1404 chip.
