In my month long trip I did everything listed in this thread including using vodka to clean the plug.. just dipped my finger in some and rubbed on both sides of the connection and plugged it in wet. Screen still came up Blue LED on side, dead otherwise..left it on all night and awoke to a live radio again. Set the time and off we go. Worked perfect the rest of the trip. Got home, hit the store switch, a couple days later went to check, click USE and the radio still working. I am going to get it replaced anyway as thye prommised me a new remanufactured one. There is def an issue with these things..

Don't intend to cycle the use/store switch anytime soon - and have no confidence that the problem is 'fixed' - just masked for the moment.
