Had this problem with an alarm due. Of course, no alarm, not even the
backup one, sounded. This is starting to get REALLY annoying.
Here's some log messages, for anyone who might know what it all means.
The alarm was programmed for 7.15am. 7.56 was when I got woken up by
the backup alarm.
My measurements of the boom were similar to bluegaspode's as well.
I agree though. I love the VFD. It's dead I guess, so there is no way
of turning back, but I do hope the next Boom has a really good and large
display. I may need another boom for another room later on, and if it
won't have the
This is changing the topic somewhat, but another downside with LCD is
scrolling text. The Radio frankly looks terrible when it scrolls text
across the top of the screen. I think this is part of the reason why
the text is so small. I'm not sure if this is a bug or what

On the plus side though, when you are sat close to the Radio, it can
display lots more text without even needing to scroll than the Boom can.

You are on SBS and want to quickly switch to MySB.com from your Radio.
But how? Quite simple

Find the connect to MySB.com entry, select it.

Feisty. Sadly, I totally agree with your sentiments.
After much digging/testing/tweaking etc, I have a radio that seems to
be behaving itself - but there are some aspects of usability that drive
me nuts. Some can be eased with third party apps (kudos Erland et al)
but sadly this only adds weight

One helpful method to identify which pin is which is to notice that the

It looks like the current fonts for the Controller (and since the Radio

There is at least one long thread of interplay between a couple of users
and developer(s) on ongoing fixes for the Radio alarm reliability.
Those changes were being incorporated into v7.4.2 and v7.5 of
