Default BC895XL Loses Memory

I guess the temperature factor depends upon how long the unit was on before
it lost it's memory. If the unit had just been turned on and programmed,
the components inside may not have "warmed up" the inside of the case to the
point where the temperature (potentially) effects the circuit, though that
temperature possibly was reached sometime during the night... Again,
complete speculation, as I don't know how long the unit was powered up
before "overnight" happened, or even if that is the real problem at all.

That's what has me so confused! As far as temperature related, could be,
but sitting on a table in the living room overnight doesn't sound too
extreme to me. Although, I've seen stranger things in the past.

Still no reply from Uniden...

Has anybody had the problem where their BC895XL randomly loses its
memory?
Mind did a few days ago and I reprogrammed it yesterday then overnight

it
lost it again. It was powered up the whole time so it's not a dead

battery
issue.


Nope, but I know someone that has a memory problem on a BCT7. Looses
memory
randomly, though only when not connected to power. My guess is a bad
capacitor in his unit. For yours, I can't see how it could loose memory
considering it was powered up the whole time. Only "best guess"

scenario
I
can come up with is an intermittent short (or open) in the memory

circuit,
possibly temperature related.
