Oh cool, missed this one, but I think my CDTV might need this Declaring interest with shipping to USA, please!

What is that transparent case you are using for Amiga Radio? I'm trying to find something similar for Amiga Radio and the Mas Player Pro2+, but can't find anything 3D printable.

Quick question if anyone knows, since I may have more available in a few days is there a way to mark the thread as "SOLD" for now but leave it open temporarily? Or do I have to close this one and make a completely new thread?

Edit the thread as it is 0 available and you are going to build more.
So you don't have to mark it as sold.

I really don't remember it safely. It may be some box for small headphones.
I have also been able to verify that within a box DSS8 (Amiga digitizer) it is great. The Amiga Radio circuit stay very well assembled by the parallel connector itself (such as the digitizer itself). Not need screws, adhesives, or glue. If a box could be printed like that would be the best.

Thank you for the kind words @Br0ther and very nice setup! If I had a 3D printer I would definitely make a case for the AmigaRadio, it's not really necessary but it'd definitely look cool!
Even though there aren't many around (probably just 4 or 5 including one of mine) the "older" FM-only AmigaRadio modules are still supported, the software does a basic check on boot and hides the FM/AM selector if necessary.

Thanks!

I might have a couple more available next week if I get the time to assemble them, I can send you a PM when I do
I actually never shipped to the US so I'll have to check shipping prices

[Pior]

Let me know when your next batch comes available I am Interested in one..

 

[pc13589]

Received payment from @AwakeningStar and just messaged @cloverskull so I can check how much is shipping to the US

@collegeboyjim is next, I'll send you a message in a couple of days since I'm only selling modules as I make them, I don't want you to send the money before I actually have one ready to ship

The next "batch" will look a bit different, I made a couple small changes to the board and couldn't resist trying the new colored silkscreen. New boards are white with the Amiga checkmark on the front and red boing ball on the back

Can a "pass through" port be added, so Amiga audio output can go into this device, and then Amiga audio and FM radio come out of this device. That way, only one set of speakers is required.

Even for my devices which offer a passthrough, I've stopped using them and have started using an independent mixer. I find that this is the best way to do it since you can have independent volume controls and you can have more than just one or two devices. Plus I got sick of certain cards adding noise to the passthrough connection.

This doesn't answer your question but IMO it's a better way to do the same job and is easier for the person making these

No, no, that does offer some insight and something I did not know and did not consider. Thank you!

Yea I heard the integrated passthrough on cards like Prisma Megamix, Mass Player, etc, can actually cause some sound degradation. I asked on EAB a couple of weeks back what would be a good solution to mix lots of audio sources together, a couple of users recommend the Behringer RX1602, so I went ahead and got a nice used one on eBay. I now have three Amiga's, Prisma Music card, Mass Player, Amiga Radio, two Midi players, ZZ9000AX sound card, all running through this one mixer without any sound loss at all, with the added bonus of full control over the audio levels.

Audio output is through the 3.5mm jack at the back of the module, the audio cable also doubles as an FM antenna so in most cases you can pick up radio stations without connecting any external antenna to the blue connector

Hello,

Is it possible for the audio to come out through the internal Amiga sound?

I remember considering this at some point before designing the board, however that would mean adding 4 RCA jacks (2 inputs + 2 outputs) and a mixer circuit so the board would be quite a bit bigger. But it's definitely possible and if some people want it I might reconsider it for future boards.

Hello,

Hi, with the current board the output is only through the audio jack. Besides the pass through solution mentioned above the only other option would be using the AUDIO IN pin on the serial port, but it's mono (right channel only) and I don't think it would be practical. It'd require a custom cable and some sort of "adapter" to be able to use the serial port normally with the AmigaRadio plugged in.

Last week I shipped more AmigaRadios to everyone in the interest queue except @collegeboyjim who didn't reply to my PM

I now have 3 more modules available, just assembled and tested, white boards with the colorful Amiga checkmark as seen in my previous post
