EH,

This is a common problem with micro-processor controled radios.

Read a few of the messages at the RadioShack DX-398 / Sangean ATD-909
eGroup at YAHOO! and you will get the picture.

Generally the "FIX" is two things:

* Pressing the "Reset" Button.

* * Removing the Batteries.

* * * I guess you have identified the third most common 'cure' . . .
- Yesterday it did not work.
- - Today it does work.
- - - This is the famous "FM!" Fix {F***ing Magic!}
