Back to reviewing the Radio - I love it. The first experience wasn't
good, it wouldn't connect to the network on the wired socket ready for
it but a bit of fiddling showed the socked wasn't properly wired. I
take back all the things I called Logitech and the Radio.
With a properly wired socket
A question please doe those of you using the radio as a bedside radio
and alarm - is there any audible hum from the unit?
I have a unit from a different manufacturer which we can't leave
powered up overnight as it hums and my wife can't sleep!! I'd like to
replace it.
Best Wishes
David

My early access beta testing unit has the same hiss when my ear is less

This is very distressing that things are not being fixed. Well I can
always return it over alarm and preset problems and send a message about
cheaping out on development.

Sorry, m ost of these bugs are like one week old.
Why do you think they don't get addressed?
Heck, if I have to change something on the App Store I need at least
three weeks for quality control alone, if you mail in your ordinary
alarm radio you probably don't get an answer before a month or so,

If a product (however cool etc) is sold as a direct replacement for the
bedside radio then the alarm simply has to work, and compared to all the
other clever things the Radio does a bit of code that says 'if current
time == wake up time then play music' sounds rather bovine to fix.

Do you have any logs left ?
If there was any errors, I'd like to see them.
If it's just messages about not finding alternative paths it's not a
problem, it just takes time.
It's the Logitech tables that's the problem, I'd prefer to not modify

One thing that did bug me throughout my use of the radio though was the

Also I can just send you chunks of the raw XML file if that would be
helpful.

If this is the case I understand why you have problems, because this is

I'm a long time fan of Slim Devices, having purchased my original SliMP3

Good idea, why don't you register an enhancement request on this
There is already an enhancement logged for this, although it was
registered before the development of the radio and only refers to the
Boom, but I think the two devices share the same alarm code. There are a
lot of bugs/enhancents logged against the alarm and as far as I can see
none of them get
