[BC] HD Radio Receiver Connection Time

[Dana Puopolo]

Hmmm..

I had an FM transmitter that locked up, but after I left it off for a day it
came back on and has worked well ever since....

Does anyone see the irony here?

We have a BA Receptor HD outside my office that has been on for over a year.
I did come in one day a couple of months ago to find it locked up.  This was
a Saturday--I left it unplugged as a power removal of a couple of minutes
didn't thaw it out.  When I came in Monday morning, someone had plugged it
back in and it has worked fine since.  So, to the best of my knowledge, this
BA has been on continuously except for 2 days since it was installed (which
was shortly after BA made the first shipments in November 2005).
