Two push to make momentary push switches 7mm diameter.Various Standoffs and nuts to mount everything together.It sounds really good! Finished Radio with Play / Mute LED, ON/SHUTDOWN button (L) and Mute Button (R) I have split the post into two parts, part 2 will cover the physical build and the software customisations I made, but there should be enough information in part 1 to wet your appetite! In this blog post I want to share with you how to build an internet Radio using a similar (but not identical) setup, and explain the software setup and electronics that go into it, so maybe you could do the same / something similar or improve on what I did! I am a firm believer in that sharing knowledge helps us. However although David’s project is excellent I was disappointed that the Magazine only pointed to a you tube video which did not explain the circuit diagram of the software setup of the device. I was inspired by the project listed in the January 2021 MagPi magazine where David Hunt built a “BOSEBerry Pi” audio / internet radio player, using a second hand BOSE Dockstation, Pi Zero W, DAC and AMP and thought I would give it a go.
