I wouldn't be quite so sure....

My Z3801 stopped working right a while ago.  I fiddled with the antenna and 
such.  Sometimes it would work well enough to confuse me, then it would fade 
out again.  It finally started working correctly after I power cycled it.

It might have been a power glitch.  It might have been a software bug that just happened to get tickled by my setup which has a poor antenna location.
