Tabletop FM Radio by AeroFredcom

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is a table top radio built around this module:http://www.ebay.com/itm/252493815508
This may also do but have't tested:http://www.ebay.com/itm/131571817336
And this speaker:http://www.ebay.com/itm/332125249549
Don´t buy cheap speakers, this is an original Tivoli Audio speaker this will make your radio sound very good and has the correct specs for the module.
The antenna can be internal or external with a panel F-type connector.
Internal, 75 cm of copper unifilar waxed or insulated wire winded around the bass reflex and power plug in the back will work very well, tested.
The power plug is a common dc connector:http://www.ebay.com/itm/332068139283
Glue it with hot glue.
The switch can be something like this:http://www.ebay.com/itm/182050318772
There is a version of the back with a hole for a 6mm dc switch in case you want a switch.
The box has 4 spots for these rubber feet:http://www.ebay.com/itm/112253048709
If you print it you will have to fill the case with some foam to reduce the midrange resonance.
This radio is inspired by the Tivoli Pal radio but with the case style of the Tivoli Model One.
// ´ve printed it but I´m still waiting for the module, when I have it ready I´ll post a video here.//
At this point I received the radio and assembled everything, its working very well with great sound, will post a video sound, great clarity and enough volume.
Issues:
The module is stereo, I only connected one channel, left, the correct way to do this would be with a summing circuit, not big deal:

Its the stereo to mono summing box.
