Default Mine does it too. I had a radio replaced under warranty(for that reason) and the new one

does the same thing. Must be a CAN-bus thing.

Default my old symphany did it some but I just put a nav-e in and it does it more I think.

It is kinda starting to bother me. I am ready to look into it and try and figure it out. Nobody else studied it out did they?

Default Count yourself lucky if your radio doesn't have the drift problem.

Many of the Symphony units will "drift" by 0.2 units when shut off... i.e., if I have my radio on 106.9 and I turn the car off, it'll be tuned to 107.1 when I turn the car back on.

Mine does this occasionally and I know others have had the same issue.
