Erland:

I’ve spent some time observing the behavior of the Radio over the last
several days. The alarm function seems to have stabilized a bit. To
keep it as uncomplicated as possible, I’ll focus on the radio turning
on and off by itself in this post.

First, some foundational comments:

The behaviors described here happen whether it is connected to wireless
network or to Ethernet cable.
Radio is connected to MSB.com. Not connected to SBS. SBS is off (as is
the computer which has SBS loaded).
There are no other computers on either hard wired or wireless. The
computers are off.
In my descriptions below, when I say “off” or “turn off” I mean just a
short push of the power button, not a full shut down. When I say shut
down, I mean a press and hold of the power button.
My screensavers are as follows – Off (Digital clock – Black); Stop –
Analog Clock; When playing – Now Playing; Screensaver delay is 30
seconds
Normally, when I turn the radio off, I do a short press of the power
button. I don’t do a shut down unless I am looking to reset the radio.
If I do a shut down, it doesn’t normally come back on by itself (but
sometimes it does – not often).

The following sequence can be duplicated more than 90% of the time.

1.      The radio is off (Off screensaver displayed)
2.      I turn it on using the power button – It has a “pause” indicator
showing in the lower left hand corner
3.      It turns off by itself within about 15 seconds
4.      It turns on by itself in a minute. Displays the last stream’s art.
Shows a “Pause” icon in the lower left hand corner.
5.      It goes into the “Stop” screensaver (digital clock) after 30
seconds
6.      It remains in this state until I intervene
7.      I press the Power button – it goes to a screen showing the last
thing that played (with a pause indicator in lower left hand corner)
8.      I press the power button again – it turns off
9.      It turns on by itself in about a minute with a stop indicator in
lower left hand corner
10.     It goes to the “Off” screensaver in about 30 seconds
11.     It goes off by itself in about 30 seconds
12.     It stays off.

The following sequence can also be duplicated more than 75% of the
time:

1.      Turn the radio on with a preset or turn it on with the power button
and then hit a preset. Radio streams (stream can be either a radio
station, Pandora or Sirius station).
2.      Radio turns off within about 15 seconds
3.      Radio turns itself back on usually with the “Play” icon in the lower
left hand corner
4.      I press the pause button; icon changes to “Pause”
5.      I press the play button and then stream restarts
6.      At this point, it usually continues to play
7.      I turn the radio off
8.      Unit turns itself on within a minute (with stop icon in lower left
hand corner)
9.      After 30 seconds it goes to the “Stop” screensaver
10.     Unit turns itself off (and stays off)

Very strange, but very consistent.

The only "event" that disrupted the above behavior today was a power
outage that lasted 2 hours. Once the power came back, all of the above
behavior disappeared and the radio worked like it is supposed to. After
a while, it was back to the "odd" behavior above.

Any ideas or questions are welcome.
