    I am using regular FM radio, whenever I change stations, it plays for a couple of seconds, then plays those same couple of seconds again. It is fine until I change the station, then it has the same behavior again. Any idea why this happens and what if anything I can do about it?

    Not sure if this is it or not but my HD enabled radio does this when the broadcast changes from "ST" to "HD" so check to see if there is an indication that this problem is occuring when locking into the HD stream.

    OK, I will check. Thanks so much for the information. This is an HD radio so that makes sense.

    You should complain to the dealer - HD Radio is garbage.
