After much research and a lot of experimenting I have given up on trying to implement a directional antenna (aerial) that would significantly reduce the annoying fading and interference that occurs over night on the medium wave AM radio station band.
Instead, on *finally* receiving my Raspberry Pi just after Christmas I have implemented an "internet radio" solution to the problem which works very well indeed.
To house the electronics I would like to build a nice 20/30s style radio cabinet and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions, pictures, *plans* (unlikely I know) as to which one to build?
All and any suggestions welcome.
