Hi Lemmy,

This problem might not be a bug in the Empeg software.

In my car I have a fairly high end Sony single CD player (as well as the Empeg), and sometimes it exhibits the same behaviour.

I believe that this is caused by user error on the part of the announcer on the radio station. From what I remember, it is down to the radio station to make sure they send out the TA message when they are putting out traffic information. In some cases, this is as simple as the announcer pressing a button when he starts to read the announcement.

If he doesn't do this quickly enough, then you miss the start of the broadcast. Likewise, if he doesn't turn it off when he's finished, then the stereo keeps tuned to the station.

In my local area, some stations actually abuse the TA feature, and switch it on when adverts are running so as to maximise the number of listeners. Not good!

Andy.
