That looks like fun!  8)  Does the knob control the volume?

Very nice! Sounds great.

Did you insulate the antenna from the enclosure, or is that a plastic enclosure?

Naa, it's more of a squelch type deal. You pick up interference that creates crazy noises, so it helps get rid of the noise. It really needs to have a boost in there.
