Re: [IRCA] 2009 Ultralight Radio Shootout-- Unprecedented Sensitivity in Two New Models



Hi Powell,

???? You are correct about the sensitivity of the C.Crane SWP model.? When this model was first introduced in December of 2007, I ordered one of the first production models for review in the 2008 Shootout.? Unfortunately, the radio had a defective part in the RF board, which made the sensitivity awful (even after alignment).? Having no other model for comparison, I assumed it was a genetic defect, and it was so reported.

???? The recent modification craze made me take another look at this E100-like model, after the E100 was discontinued.? It was then discovered that the C.Crane SWP is actually quite a sensitive little radio, and an excellent Slider recipient.

???? 73,? Gary?

I told Gary the CC-SWP I had was the most sensitive small radio I had. It has 
better audio through the small speaker than the Sangean DT-400W.  It actually, 
through the headphones, shows that the overall audio is superior .... which it 
is. There is another Ultralite that should be out soon.  the Mini 400.
