So many of these weird electrical gremlins are tied to dirty/corroded/loose connections and bad batteries.

I'll bet it's the battery going south. If it's 3 or more years old do yourself a favor and get a new one. One less thing to worry about and it'll save your alternator too.

Not to hijack the thread, but, speaking of electrical gremlins, a guy here at work bought serial #52, Precision Red C6 (rare). His car has been plagued by electrical bug-a-boos. For example, when the fog lights didn't work, they found that the software code was never entered at the factory to activate them!!!!!!

Check your battery or the connections to the radio. Other than that, the only other thing I can think of is the radio itself.
