Disclaimer

This is all a hobby. Also maintaining and updating the Wiki.

This is all a hobby project. A fun and voluntary job to create great functionality with the radio. These are the ideas and insights from this development project and they are shared so that not only we but also you can enjoy the possibilities that arise.

** Thank you for the positive responses, ideas and participation **

Not all wishes are feasible or suitable for this project This also means that not everything is right the first time. And the sources, documentation, etc. have limitations. The radio also has limitations (that's why it costs so little), but with creativity you can create a lot of beautiful things. Sometimes things cannot be better, or it is not yet clear how things can be done differently.

We ENJOY and SHARE this hobby

Greetings Losehu and ErikS
