This project used the Si470x FM radio receiver and an ardurino to make an over the counter kitchen radio. These parts had been purchased for a different build that unfortunately met a premature end. The concept for this project is simple. Play my favorite news and music radio stations while having a form factor that

This was a fun project. Push the red button, watch the dice ” ROLL ” then stop on a random roll most every time. The hart of this game is the ATMEL ATmega328P on a stand alone board. Powered by 4 AA NiMD batteries. Can you find the SECRET SWITCH in the main picture? Where is
