I can assure you that I do not experience any of those issues with my Radio. The alarms do fade in; I use a playlist that points to my favourite radio station and it never missed an alarm once (up until now). The alarm time is stable and correct. Im running SBS 7.5.0 on a ReadyNAS NVX Pioneer. Im quite happy with the Radio. The only thing Im missing is tone controls. Maybe you should give the local SBS a try to see if the behaviour is any better? -- Pascal Hibon 2 x SB3, 1 x SB Boom and 1 x SB Radio - all wireless ReadyNAS NVX running SBS iPeng on iPod Touch.
