Default C Crane SW was not designed for DRM reception :No 12 kHz Output


I was thinking about getting a new C Crane SW so I can receive distant
digital radio monodiale radio stations, but I was reading somewhere
else that the portable radio receiver only has a 455 kHz output IF AM
jack. That got me disappointed, cause I have to get a down-converter
box or circuit to add to the radio receiver. C Crane should of
added 2 different jacks on the rear panel a 455 kHz output IF jack and
a 12 kHz AM IF output jack for just DRM reception from the computer.
I just wanted to let everyone know about this. I hope someone can
hear me on this and understand. That it's going to be challenging to
get the new DRM stations on this receiver without that converter
box. I want to share something with others who own the C Crane SW
which I will be getting soon is called the ESP converter box I hope
this helps new and old rec.radio.shortwave listeners with the
difficulty of getting DRM digital radio reception with the C Crane SW
or other receivers out there.
