Default D2 Radio Drifts

Hi all, thanks in advance for any help

I've had my D2 for a couple of years now and still use it every day mainly while walking my dog in the morning and evening and in the car and its always on radio in the morning since there a morning radio program online that I like.

The problem is that 3 times in the past month, the radio has begun to suddenly drift while the screen is locked. When this happens I've checked it and the player says its the same channel, but I'm getting 102.9 rather than 103.7. This has happened with a couple of different brand headphones. I haven't even put any more music on it in the last couple of months. The player is running firmware 2.57.

Any ideas of what it could be?

They do sometimes switch to a stronger signal from a near frequency. As nearly as I can tell, this is just a weakness of this FM chip. Usually, I can get it back to the station I want by jumping to another preset and then back to the one that drifted off.
