Thank you for purchasing the CCRadio2E. Please read through these
instructions thoroughly before using the product.
With the new CCRadio-2 Enhanced version, audio can be accurately
tuned for realistic human voices. It can also be adjusted for good
musical performance. Traditional FM reception is also a full step up in
its ability to bring in a weak station clearly.
The CCRadio-2E Enhanced also has the Weather band/Alert along the
2-meter Ham band. Five memory buttons on top of the radio makes it
easier to change stations rather than front mounted buttons. The
CCRadio2E has many of the refinements and improvements requested
by customers who have bought other CCRadios. The CCRadio2E is
built for the highest performance ever on AM and has been designed to
be long lasting.
You’ll notice that we removed the television (TV) band from the radio.
This change was necessary because of the new government mandated
digital format set for February of 2009. We have replaced the TV band
with the 2-Meter VHF Ham band. For many radio listeners the addition
of the 2-Meter VHF Ham band will be their first experience with amateur
(ham) radio. I hope you have the time to explore this band. What you’ll
hear is a lot of dedicated radio people using a communication device
with pride. You will especially want to tune in to 2-Meter VHF during a
local, area-wide emergency when communications will be very different.
When the power in an area is down, and cell phones and other modes
of communication are unavailable, many hams use portable equipment
that lets them work as beacons of information. They have direct com-
munication with federal agencies and the Red Cross. We recommend
that you find out which local 2-Meter frequencies are used during an
emergency in your area and have them installed into the five memory
locations.
We hope the CCRadio2E will give you many years of learning, news
and entertainment. If you have any questions about your radio, please
