The CCRadio2E is made for distant or weak AM signal listening.

Daytime reception is limited to about 300 miles maximum because you

can only receive the signal directly from the transmitter site. You may

receive AM stations thousands of miles away at dawn, dusk and at

night, depending on the time of year and atmospheric conditions. The

ionosphere is a layer of ions above the earth. At night it slows and con-

geals into a giant mirror and can reflect radio waves back to the earth,

allowing you to receive signals much farther away than during the day.
Distant listening is called DXing. One club that is devoted to DXing is

National Radio Club at: PO Box 164, Mannsville, NY 13661-0164. They

maintain a website at:

Most portable radios including the CCRadio2E have an internal AM

antenna. Best performance is achieved when the radio is swiveled on

its base for maximum signal pickup from the transmitting tower. This

same technique can be used to help nullify unwanted signals or radio

noise. Experimentation is the best way to see how it works for you.

The CCRadio2E has an external antenna terminal for AM. If your recep-

tion is better outside, try this quick and easy antenna: Use 50' of insulat-

ed wire attached to the AM antenna terminal. Also try a ground wire

attached to the ground terminal. Go to 

ccrane.com/radionoise

for more

information about a good grounding method. Run the antenna wire

inside around a window or along a baseboard, or if possible, the wire

should be mounted outside at least three feet away from the face of a

metal building or it may not work. Where an outdoor antenna is not pos-

sible, try the Twin Coil Ferrite

®

AM Antenna by C. Crane. The antenna

element can be placed on a window sill or mounted where a better sig-

nal is avail able. 

SAFETY DIRECTIONS AND  PRECAUTIONS FROM

YOUR ANTENNA SUPPLIER SHOULD BE FOLLOWED TO PRE-
