Radio

A new little project. A sweet little Roberts radio. According to the eBay listing it worked but by the time Royal Mail had had it for a couple of days and chucked it about a bit, the ferrite rod was broken in two places and rattling around inside. Doesn't matter. The plan was only to use the box (top left) and build an internet radio and MP3 receiver inside it. That's all reasonably straightforward but then I found some guy on YouTube who worked out how to use the variable capacitor, usually used for tuning the radio, to move through stations. Neat. Still need a phone to stream Spotify but now it's possible to have more than 6 Music on the radio.
