I have just completed my first Arduino Project. It's pretending to be an Oscar Belle Two Band Transistor Radio (Made in Hong Kong in the early 1960s).
What it is really doing is playing 24 music tracks that I preloaded onto an SD card in WAV format. There are also 10 tuning noises tracks that get played when the tuner is turned.
Because this is the first time I did this I had a lot of help. Firstly the chaps at Hackspace have been very supportive in teaching me how to use and Arduino, particularly Adrian McEwan. Also Jingle Joe who helped me solder together the Wave Shield, Brox who helped me understand the ancient mysteries of FAT16 and Esme Moore who helped dismantle the original radio.
The music clips you can hear on the radio are from The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing and Professor Elemental.
@JingleJoe Cheers Joe! It is figgen brilliant! Even if I do say so myself! ;-)
