Windows are open here, the weather is so nice.
What is this nice weather that you speak of?
We left ehh weather in TX to come home to niceish weather (for January) here. To WINTER crud
I wanna go back to TX!!!!!
One day, I drove out to west Texas and ended up in New Mexico. Won't ever do that again. To me, Texas Is Home!
I avoid New Mexico as much as I can.

@thwr said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
Just thought about a new project, a DIY kitchen radio. Our beloved 25 years old Siemens radio died a few days ago. It's still working, but some buttons are broken. We already tried 4 or 5 different radios, but all of them aren't good for one reason or another.
So, what makes a good kitchen radio in 2017?
- VHF / UKW (ultra-short range, standard in Europe / Germany) radio
- Play radio streams
- Easy to use timer / alarm
- Would like to stream from Android / iPhone to the radio (we likes to listen to music and audio books when we're preparing the meal for example).
- Display w/Clock
- Low power consumption
Additional ideas?
rPI, SDR, tube amp, home made speaker box
SDR would be an option, I thought more about the https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/pub/Main/DataSheets/application_note_tea5767-8.pdf
That's a full featured, low power radio IC. Roughly $1 at aliexpress

I think you mean "a full featured, low power radio IC. Roughly $1 at aliexpress for something that's labelled the same" lol

Just another reason for Texas to secede, but that's another topic entirely.

What I'm talking about is a single chip radio, including all the low level stuff.

@thwr haha I meant that aliexpress is... not always what you think you're getting

NerdyDad should know this. The map of the DFW metroplex is worse.

Yeah, just got it
Ali is ok, at least for electronic components etc - You just need to know exactly what you want to buy

considering the cost of mail order brides that's a pretty good deal
