a long weekend in the garage, it wouldn't go on at all. <<

I had a similar problem. The Milano radio was intermitant.
Sometimes it would turn on, sometimes not. I checked the
power connector and it seemed OK. So I took the radio apart
and looked for bad solder joints. The problem went away
after I resoldered the on/off switch contacts.

Good Luck,
