What is the current state of play regarding *coded* radio sets and
battery changing?

Either know the code & method of entering it, or hook up a 2nd battery
eg via the fag lighter so it never loses 12v


Hmm.. nice little earner for the re-coding shop:-(

Computers manage to survive switch off, why not radios?


Because they're deliberately designed to disable the radio if it's
removed.

Does anyone steal car radios anymore? I happen to have this dead one
from the previous owner allowing a garage to change the battery:-(
