Hopefully I'm not too late for 2.0 final/rc, I've been so busy...

2.0b13 and Hijack 309 (or roughly that at least)

1) When powering up in tuner mode, the station name isn't displayed until you manually select the station - 100% reproducible. If you power up in MP3 and change to Tuner, it works correctly and gets the name.

2) After a powerup the first time I change to tuner, it's as if some sort of active gain circuit is applying a lot of gain to the tuner input resulting in a very loud and quite distorted signal for a second or two. Quite annoying. I haven't noticed this in powering up in tuner mode probably because the volume ramp stuff covers it up. After the first change to tuner everything is all cool. It maybe a hardware thing though, I'm not sure...

One thing to note with this one is that I have a power aerial so it's down until I select the tuner. However if I've changed backwards and forwards between tuner and MP3 a few times (with the aerial going up and down accordingly), the distortion only happens the first time.

3) I notice that occasionally the station names get corrupted with strange characters - sometimes worse than others. I thought the station names were stored in the empeg itself. If that was the case how would they get munged? If they're stored in the tuner module, no problem and I will pull my dash apart and shield the extension cable to hopefully fix things since I'm guessing that's where the characters are getting munged.

4) Should the AF search actually interrupt the transmission for a short while? I have simply turned it off since only one station here actually uses it, it seems. Sometimes when it does this search and goes back to the original station it forgets the station name. I assume these are part of the bugs that are holding up the 2.0 rc right?

5) The RDS light constantly flicks on and off even when the signal strength is at the full. Is this normal?

I did a bit of a search but couldn't really find anything reports similar to mine. Number 2 is the real annoying one. Anyone else experienced it?
