I bought an internet radio for the mother for Christmas - it means that she can listen to BBC Radio 4 without it sounding like complete rubbish over long wave. It worked fine for a few hours in the morning on Christmas day then it malfunctioned - the volume started to act as though the volume up button was jammed down. I can't reset it - the behaviour makes it completely unworkable. It seems to be some form of short circuit. After I powered it off overnight, it seemed to work again - for about 10 minutes, then I got the same behaviour. With sadness I shall be returning it to the store to get a replacement unit, which, I hope, will work much better.
The issue it that it's frustrating, I don't think that it's a problem endemic with the model as there seem to be a lot of people with the same model, none of whom seem to be complaining about it.
