Unfortunately the firmware needs to be rebuilt to enable cron in busybox. When I first enabled cron in the firmware, I setup a job to reboot the radio twice a month and within a few days of adding it I noticed that the radio had become really slow. At the time, I just wanted to play some music so I just rebooted and a few days later, a factory reset wiped the job. I need to retest using cron to determine if that was the cause. I've neved found the radio to be that slow before or since but there were several other changes at the time, which might have contributed to the problem as well. I have not released the new firmware yet.
