John,
I doubt your radio was part of a bad run, especially since you've had it
for a while and the problem didn't crop up. We forget that even in the
world of ICs and surface mount technology, components can and do
fail. Perhaps your microprocessor took a lightning hit. Those don't
always do obvious damage, and according to an engineer friend of mine, they
don't always show up right away.
