In Reality whether you use your CCRadio
or I use my GE Superadio we each can only
Listent to One Radios Station at a Time on
Each Radio.
My two ears multi-task -- hearing the nightly TV news, with 80
meter
chatter in the bg, monitoring 2 meter traffic, the computer
streaming
Air America, the weather radio on alert; all happening
simultaneously.
Try working as a broadcast engineer at a small TV station where
you
run multiple cameras, the audio board, load film or tape and monitor
the
TV and AM transmitter by yourself. I did this for a year, while in
the
US army. I read Sci-Fi books and watched another TV station for
entertainment while doing all of the above while working from sign
on to
sign off for at least seven days out of each two week period.
Right now I have three computers running, while listening to WSM
over
the internet and I have a TV on in the corner.
Heh. I knew a guy who worked on CGI graphics in my
previous company who used to have a similar setup
in his cubicle (just swap the television for another
workstation). He used to quip, "It's not just a job,
it's a CAT scan."

These days I repair computers, design web sites and read the
newsgroups at the same time. No cats allowed around here, though.
I do have this around the house from time to time:
