The Design

The radio is as simple as it can be, just a scan radio for FM.

With a little built-in motor the elephant can move its ear and trunk. The FM whip antenna is a little shorter than a quarter wave (which would be around 75cm for the FM band), but is bottom loaded with an extension coil as you can see on the picture on the left.

Sound sample	PLAY SOUND Spanish songs were quite in fashion in the long hot summer of 2006.
