Default HK stereo media selection when started

I'd like feedback on how the HK stereo should select mode (AM, FM, CD, etc.) when started. I almost always use the CD player, and when restarted it usually does so in FM mode, but almost as often in CD, and rarely in AM or WB. There seems to be no pattern, but my experience with car stereos is that it should continue with the media in operation when last stopped. Don't see anything in the manual about it.

Great to here that 8.11 is flawed, just upgraded to it. Anyone have 8.9 files available. Also does anyone know if you can migrate back.

Thanks

Steve

What issues does 8-11 have, besides apparently an inability to remember what media was used last?

All in all I have had pretty good luck with 8.11. There have been a couple of little things but nothing major.

It's an HD--all I can say is get used to it. How they can release these screwed up updates is beyond me. Don't they test these first?

Mine would always stay on the same media type until I upgraded to 8.11. Maybe the next release will fix it. I haven't tried to go back - I guess it doesn't bother me that much....
