Default Probably static electricity or a electric spike (similar to static discharge).
The reson could be almost anything from a loose wire to a cracked conection on the circuite board.

Fix is probably a new radio but try reseating the conections in the back of the radio.

Default Mine did the same after installing the PBox...a recent PBox firmware upgrade cured it.
Check out the <a href="http://www.phatnoise.com/">PhatNoise website</a> for details on updating your firmware/software. HTH.

Default Station drift
This is a known problem on the 2000 and 2001 Symphony radios. The only solution is a replacement.

Has anyone actually fixed the radio drift problem by replacing the radio?
