It's an inheritance from the old slim players thats does not have any internal resources to speak off they are very slim they don't even have a clock. In the begging there was no mysqueezebox.com either and the alarm function began it's life as a plugin . Boom introduced a realtime clock but it' alarm works the same as an SB2 or SB3 except for that it can remember the next alarm. In theory boom should be worse than radio but it seems that it is more reliable in practice -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.
