Probably designed by the same engineering bozos who left out the radio
station display. When you're changing stations, it displays the radio
station, but once the it displays the clock, there's no button to display
the radio station again. (well, you can push the bass/treble/bal/fade button
5 times, but that's a pretty dumb workaround).
