Sure, makes sense, I could probably check for activity through the wifi
access point with the lid closed.

I don't often have a webpage with Material open, tend to dip in and out
as I want to control players or queue some music up - but that may
explain why this is so sporadic. Currently making sure I don't use it
for a few days just to see how the alarms fare, both worked this
morning.
Thinking I may well dig out a spare SB Radio and set it up next to my
usual lounging area and then set hourly alarms for some more intensive
testing, Although I wouldn't be surprised if Michael's investigations
progress before I get round to that.
