Mea culpa.

I'm confusing the large CCR-SW which you have, with the much smaller SWP.
With its larger antennae it's certainly expected that it would out-perform
a pocket-sized radio on sensitivity.- Hide quoted text -


I indeed have the large CC Radio SW. I tested it again more carefully
with my other radios on three very weak far distant FM stations. The
average result out of 5 was:
4.3 RP2100
4.0 GR8
3.7 Drake SW8
2.3 E100

The RP2100 is hot man, but the Grundig G8 is not far behind and way,
way ahead of the equivalent E100.
