The CCRadio-SW is a portable AM/FM/Shortwave radio. The radio features a Twin Coil Ferrite AM Antenna for long range AM radio reception. The CCRadio-SW supersedes the CCRadio plus, drops some features, but adds some others including, most notably, Shortwave reception. The radio can be run off 4 D-size batteries, an AC adapter, or 4 AAA batteries as a backup. It features line-level stereo outputs, for connecting to your home theater, amplifier, or receiver.

I'm confused. Is there really a market for these AM/FM/Shortwave radios? I pretty much only listen to Internet radio in the house. I do listen to the regular radio in the car, but I hate it. Any thoughts?

What are you even doing on this page? How can you vote negatively on something you do not even own, nor know the first thing about? Does your mother know you are on her computer? Your Mickey Mouse clock must be telling you that it is "Half Past your bedtime" (EST).

Here, maybe this will help.... "Dis ting roxors! Dis ting pwns all other noob radios!! Dis is really phat l3wt!!

Hope that helps......
