Received the new CCRadio-SW today. My first impressions are as
follows. On MW, just a slight tad below the CCRadio in sensitivity, and about the same as the S350. On FM, superior to both the CCRadio and the S350. I get perfect reception of a hard-to-get FM station that I like on the CCRadio-SW where the same station on the S350 is noisy with interference, and on the CCRadio the station is noisy (but not quite as bad as the S350). On SW, reception is better on the CCRadio-SW than on the S350, not to mention that tuning is much easier on the CCRadio-SW. Please note than on the CCRadio-SW, SW tuning is in 5 mhz, so you can't fine tune. But I find it quite adequate. Sound on the CCRadio-SW is much better than on either the CCRadio or the S350. There are pros and cons as far as purchasing a new radio when it first comes out. I have been told that during the first production run, every unit is checked for quality control. My CCRadio, if I recall, was one of the first sets made, and it is MORE sensitive than either of two RF-2200s that I have owned, and more sensitive than the GE Superadio III. My Grundig Satellit 800 was in the FIRST batch made for retail, and it had NONE of the problems that others experienced. It has always been a gem - NO wobbly knobs, etc. So I expect my CCRadio-SW to be a good unit also. I recommend the CCRadio-SW as a better choice than the S350. |
