Thanks, Chris
How in the world does you prof think that a custom built engine monitoring system is less impressive than an AM radio?!? And can't you find an AM radio in every auto store on the planet?
/me picks up wire, a diode, and a pair of headphones. Ooohh so difficult.
You've gotta write the code to interface with the OBD-2 port and the LCD, plus have user input for selecting modes. Oh and the real time clock.
Maybe you could also ad a WWVB receiver to the mix and have the first atomic Contour clock. Technically it's an AM receiver too.
