I'm not sure it would be worth the cost - I constantly had problems with
Wifi Dropping and doing other weird things.  Sometimes, by the time I
got the Wifi back up  I no longer wanted to listen to the music.  :( 
Also, I'm interested in seeing if I could have something more by the
time I am done...touchscreen instead of old LCD?!

Could you try to get the Radio fixed? We are trying to keep our precious

[SlimDevices: Radio] Replace dead radio guts with Raspberry Pi/PiCoreplayer

2018-11-01 Thread BlueWombat


Hi - 

My Squeezebox radio finally died a while back, after years of various
problems.  I have previously built a PiCoreplayer, but miss the
portability of of my radio.  Has anyone tried to gut a Squeezebox Radio
and replace it with a Raspberry Pi, including replacing the radio LCD
and configuring the knobs?  Just thinking it might be an interesting
project, but, though the standalone player was pretty easy to set up,
I'm not technical enough to figure out how to set up things like the
knobs myself, so I was hoping someone had successfully done it.
