I finally found a working method:

1) I made sure my Boom was linking to SqueezeBox Server (actually it's
now Logitech Media Server) on my PC.  (instead of MySqueezeBox.com, as
I used to have it)

2) On the Boom off the root menu, I *manually* initiated a search for
KFI by actually entering in the characters "K F I" using the dial
knob.

3) Once the search successfully found KFI, I hit the 'next' arrow to
play the station.

This method seems to have worked...for now.  I saved the "found"
version of KFI as one of my six preset buttons, and it always seems to
play from there.  However, when I attempt to save the found version of
KFI as a Favorite, then try to play the Favorite later, KFI craps out. 
Same thing happens if I set the Boom's alarm to play the found version
of KFI at a set time.

This method of searching and saving ClearChannel stations to the six
presets also worked for KNEW and KOGO.  And similarly, playability
craps out using any other methodologies.

I suspect that this tenuous success means my Boom's days are numbered,
and I'm going to have to upgrade to one of the new AAC-friendly
Squeezebox models.  Hate to do that, though, and lose the double
speaker power of the Boom in the process...UNLESS...unless others on
this form can vouch for the equivalent/near-equivalent quality sound of
the newer models.  (suggestions welcomed!)

Cez.
