Let's back up. I printed out all of this thread's comments regarding your
radio. It worked and then you saw that it had quit.

You don't mention using an ac wall adapter, so the C cells must momentarily
break connection while the unit is on. Vibration from the speaker, especially
when the volume is turned up, could cause poorly contacting cells to briefly
break connection.

Otherwise, once it is working good, it should continue to work until the
battery dies.

Well, this is the freaky thing. The radio had been off and untouched
all day. Had been working fine for about 3 days. I came home and once
again the 12:00 was flashing, and all the presets cleared. Nobody else
has access to this room but me, so I don't think of foul play.

I am going to try the short trick tonight, and if keeps acting up,
going to RS and asking for an exchange. Of course, this radio was on
clearance. What do you think they'd offer?
