Topic: Increase backup alarm to longer than 5 mins

I'd like my chumby to emulate my now defunct radio alarm clock.  I'd like to be awoken to a radio stream for say something like 30 minutes, then a buzzer to make sure I'm up.

Currently, using the backup alarm, you can only listen to a maximum of 5 minutes of radio, before the backup alarm kicks in.

I know I can set up two different alarms, one radio, and then another (e.g.) klaxon alarm.  Am I being too fussy?  Thoughts?

Thanks.

Re: Increase backup alarm to longer than 5 mins

I second this suggestion. It makes sense to allow the 5min limit to be set to anything lower than the "play for X min" selection.

I usually sleep for about 15min after the alarm goes off initially so it would be great to have a final warning more than 5min after kickoff smile.
