Step 13What now?
Although the radio works and everything does what it should do, there are some improvements to make.
First of all I need to clean up the code a bit and I would like to make an even more graphical interface. I also have to look to the rotary encoder as it works to slow and has a to big deboucetime.
Secondly, when you look at the schematics, you'll see that there is an I2C connector of optional devices. I intend to add a weatherstation to the radio with weather info gathered via sensors in the radio as well as info that comes from the internet.
It would also be nice to be able to show an RSS feed on the LCD.
So lots of things to do and to look at. And maybe you have some ideas too, so let me know....

A thought regarding further expansion (as if it didn't do enough already); How about a USB port or SD card reader so that it could play music from an external source also? A SNTP sync-ed clock on the display is also handy on nearly anything and you might make that the display when it's on but not playing.
This really is a top project. Thanks.
