Mainly interested in AM listening.

Thanks

For $10 more, you can have the CCRadioSW. It has the built in Twin
Ferrite core antenna and has the best MW I have heard. I bought one
and am very pleased with it.

I have both the CCRadio and the CCRadioSW and the CCRadio OUTPERFORMS
the CCRadioSW on the medium (AM) band. The CCRadioSW has better
sound. Although there is not a big difference, the CCRadio is
slightly better at rejecting adjacent signals even though the
CCRadioSW has two bandwidths. The CCRadio is also slightly more
sensitive.

The built-in Twin Ferrite core antenna in the CCRadioSW is a joke as
far as I am concerned. It's NOT anything comparable to the stand-
alone Twin Ferrite core antenna that C Crane offers.
