Nice to know about the date format.
This is the beauty of programming ... and Arduinos. We are always thinking about adding one more feature, one more sensor, one more something ...
Unfortunately the memory of the Arduino is quite limited, and in the case of the RX unit, the memory of the Arduino Nano is already being used almost entirely (especially when the TFT is used).
To add an alarm, we need a way to program it, possibly some buttons, some free pins... there are some free yet, but memory no more
Certainly, a more efficient writing code could save a few more bytes ...
Perhaps in a 2015 code version...
PWM, with some Up an Down push button?
Quote:I've also been having thoughts that it might be a good idea to incorporate a alarm clock in the the RX unit, also thinking that having ultra sound sensors to switch the alarm off might be a good idea, so you can just wave your hand over the unit to switch it off or snooze
