C.Crane CCRadio 2E Enhanced Updated

CCRadio2EEnhanced When I reviewed their CCRadio 2E Enhanced radio here last January, I complained about its default display:

“By far, my biggest complaint is the frequency display. When you tune the radio, the radio displays the frequency, but when you stop tuning, the frequency disappears after a few seconds and displays the time, if the clock has been programmed or nothing, if the clock has not been programmed. To display the frequency again, you must press the Freq button momentarily and again, the frequency disappears after a few seconds and displays the time or nothing!”

“When I am DXing, the frequency is much more important than the time of day, so I would prefer that the frequency was the default display, not the time. Or at least allow the user to select the default display”

C.Crane listens to its customers and I am happy to pass along the news that the default display is now user-programmable, that is you can program the radio to display by default either the time or the frequency! Version 2 of the 2E manual indicates that this is so and an e-mail query to C.Crane confirms it.
