The backup alarm jangle can be first to kick in at the scheduled alarm time. But it can also, it seems, kick in at any time during the alarm period. I think I have had router problems as well as a PC slow to start. At its worst, the 'correct' alarm can start, and give me 3 or even 30 minutes of BBC Radio 4, and then suddenly give way to the jarring backup. Which is infuriating. In the 'old' days of 7.4.1, the backup would also give way to the chosen stream after a few minutes: that does not happen so much these days. (However, as someone else on the this list commented, it is the very unpredictability of this radio which gives it its charm, and prevents us taking it for granted.)
