RHF,

I agree with everything you came up with, but I do have a couple mo

(7) AT LEAST 20 memories for AM and FM (each). Five is totally inadequate.

(8) Silent (but tactile) push-buttons (like the ones on my Sony SW07). The
ones they have now have a LOUD double-click that is annoying to say the
least. It defeats the point of quietly listening over headphones if there's
a loud "KA-BUMP!" filling the silence every time you decide to tune a
preset.

(9) Stereo without headphones. The CC Radio is a nightstand radio. Widen
it and put a speakers on each side. Yes, that would make it a boom-box (or
a third-world briefcase), but it would be great.

FO&A,

I would say that for the $160 'price' the CCRadio Plus could
offer more features and truly be a better value for the money.

1. AM-SYNC
- The CCRadio Plus can really use AM-Sync to live up to its
claim of being the "Best AM Radio Made".

2. AM/MW Wide (7.5 kHz) and Narrow (4 kHz) IF Filters
[ FM Wide (200 kHz) and Narrow (110 kHz) IF Filters ]
- The CCRadio Plus can really use a set of two selectable IF
Filters for both AM/MW and FM Radio Listening. Better Local
Sound Quality and 'improved' DXing Capability.

3. AM/MW Local & DX Switch (-20dB RF Signal Attenuator)
[ FM-Stereo & FM-Mono ]
- The CCRadio Plus can really use a Local & DX Switch especially
for the High RF Environments of Urban Areas.
- The CCRadio Plus can really use a FM-Stereo (Local) and
FM-Mono (DX) feature for overall better FM Reception.

4. Separate AM and FM Antenna Inputs
[ AM/MW Antenna & Ground Terminals and FM/TV "F" Connector ]
- The CCRadio Plus can really use real Antenna Inputs that
actually work and are specifically designed for the separate
Antennas requirements of both AM/MW (HI-Z 500 Ohms) and
FM/TV (LO-Z 5 Ohms).

5. AM-Talk and FM-Music Audio Switch
- The CCRadio Plus claims that it is engineered for the
reproduction of the Human Voice. Better Audio Engineering is
needed again to fullfil its claim to be the "Best AM Radio Made".

6. Dual Speakers to work with the AM-Talk (Single) and
FM-Music (Dual) Audio Switch.
- The CCRadio Plus can really use two matched Speakers that
faithfully reproduce both AM-Talk (Single) and FM-Music (Dual)
Audio Sound.


? What's Your Ideas to Improve the CCRadio Plus ?
