    Default Roberts 747 - 1990s radio

    Just would like to share one of my projects.

    This is Roberts 747 radio made in 1990. But yes, its not an ordinary old radio anymore as you may guess
    It has RPi fitted inside and from this week running RuneAudio



    You can find more details how it was done and what was main goal on Instructables
