Thanks for the response Steve - So its not an internal clock thing with
the HU, but the relay dropping the connection after an hour's use?  It's
a pretty regular occurence; drive one hour, recycle the HU.  I didn't
have to re-tool the relay to use the system as the original write up
suggested happened for some folks.  Did your install work for any length
of time without the relay mod?

Your problem is due to the lack of relayed power. BTDT.
