I enjoy putting the kits together.

Thus normal FM radio but I like the net radio idea, maybe in a future version I can have both.

Are you using a raspberry pi and building a net radio?
So many possibilities .

This is what the real one looks like:

I'm currently still busy drawing my version but this is what it looks like thus far:
