A few words from Bob
Today there are more radio stations and for­mats available then ever before. It can make choosing the right radio more of a challenge than itʼs ever been. That is where C. Crane comes in. We know how important radio is for communication, news and music and we specialize in helping you find the radio thatʼs right for you. Take your time browsing through our catalog and our Web site, and if you have any questions, please give us a call. Weʼve been part of the radio community for over 25 years and are here to do our best for you.
I would also like to mention our LED Light Bulbs. By the time you read this catalog we should be delivering our first direct-replacement White LED GeoBulbs Itʼs been exhilarating and an honor to be involved with developing a light bulb that uses half the energy of a compact fluorescent bulb and contains no mercury or lead. I praise the people at C. Crane and our associates who have made this possible.

How to Buy a Radio
Having loved radio for over 40 years, we have learned quite a bit about what type of radio is best for a particular situation. You will get the best service, if you can decide what the highest purpose is for the radio you want. If you think about it this way, you may get a pleasant surprise on the price. Perhaps half the time the best radio for your purpose will cost less money than you originally expected, not more. At the same time, donʼt worry if the radio that you want costs more. It is far better to save your money for awhile, in order to get what you really want, because many people listen to their radios for 10 years or more. If you buy a radio that is not the one you really want, you may be reminded every time you turn it on.
How We Pick our Radios
Each type of radio we carry is put through a testing process that you would not want to match at your home. Most radios tested do not make it into our lineup for one reason or another. We ask ourselves why our cus­tomers would be interested in this model and how well the radio holds up to its designed purpose. We open it up and inspect it for quality and value and decide whether it is the best in its class or best for the money. Each radio is looked at in respect to people who are on a budget, and also for those who may not be on a budget.
AM performance is tested around noon time. At that time, very weak sta­tions can be tuned that remain at a constant signal level and donʼt fade in and out. It is then easy to see how one radio compares to another when tuned to the same station. If two radios are found that are very similar, we dig deeper and go into the history of the company behind the radio, then the better their history of quality, the more likely we are to carry that brand of radio. C. Crane has a quality control system in Fortuna and also over­seas to raise quality and reduce problems. Since we repair our own radios we have good idea of what to look for.
We carry many different brands of radio for a very good reason ... to serve you, our customers. It is, however, most fun and rewarding to design and manufacture our own radios based on what our customers have requested. Many of our employees, including the owners, have been building products since we were children. This is who we are. Besides the internet (check out our WiFi Radios), we believe radio is the most powerful and important media type in the United States, including television. We hope you will give us a call and/or visit ccradio.com when you need a radio.

When you turn on a CCRadioplus, you get excellent AM radio reception, day or night, and even at long distances. Whether youʼre listening to news, advice, entertainment or sports, they all sound just right on the CCRadioplus. You will notice the speaker sounds different from other

When you tune to your favorite station, the signal meter and fine-tuning knob verify that your reception is always at its best. With todayʼs updated NOAA radio service, the built-in Weather Radio works as an “all hazards” information radio. So, in addition to your local weather forecasts, you can use the
weather band and weather alert feature to track any significant events that affect your area. AC cord included. Also runs on 4 “D” batteries (not included) for over 250 hours of use.

Getting Started In Shortwave

The first thing to decide is what size portable radio you need.
SMALL (under 6" wide): If you travel,
perhaps the smallest radio is best. As a radio gets smaller, performance gen­erally decreases slightly in sensitivity (ability to pick up a weak station) and selectivity (ability to distinguish close stations). Since the speaker is small, a good set of headphones is a wise investment.
MID-SIZE (about 8" wide): This size radio is multi-purpose. Small enough to travel with or just carry around. Also suitable as a desk radio. Audio quality is good enough for extensive listening.
LARGE (about 12" wide): A real bene­fit of a larger radio is better audio quality, making it easier to listen to for hours on end. Larger radios seem to have better sensitivity and selectivity.

Digital FM Transmitter
Go wireless! Send audio from your computer or MP3 player to any nearby FM radio!
The FM Transmitter uses FM radio waves to send sound from any device you choose to any nearby radio or stereo system. The only wire you have to connect is from the FM Transmitter to the headphone jack. Simple as that. And since the Transmitter works with any device that has a head­phone jack, you can use it with your computer, WiFi radio, MP3 player, DVD player, and even satellite radio. It is perhaps the only FM Transmitter with adjustable audio input so it can handle virtually any level of audio. The side mounted thumbwheel allows you to adjust the input for perfect quality, and an LED indicator signals overload. One customer told us that she plugs the FM Transmitter into her TV, and sends the audio to a small radio she keeps by her ear. Many health clubs use it to broadcast music to motivate workout routines. AC adapter includ­ed, or use 2 optional “AA” batteries. One of the few transmitting devices available that meets FCC specifications. Choose any FM frequency between 88.3 MHz and 107.7 MHz. Portable, fits in the palm of your hand. Size: 3" W x 3.5" H x 1" D.

CC Observer Wind-up Radio
The CC Observer is a wind-up emergency radio with AM/FM and
Weather Band. We made sure that it has good AM reception and an LED
flashlight that is built into the side of the radio so it wonʼt shine in your eyes when you turn it on. You can run the CC Observer off the built-in rechargeable battery pack or you can go with 3 “AA” alkaline batteries (not included) if you prefer. If you donʼt have alkaline batteries around, just wind-up the radio to charge the built-in battery pack and keep it run­ning as long as you need — which is especially handy during a power failure. The CC Observer has a built-in 2-inch speaker, or you can plug in your headphones, for private listening in stereo.
You can also use the CC Observer to charge a cell phone or PDA. We include cell phone adapters for the most popular, recent model cell phones so you can charge them with the CC Observer. More information and list of phone models covered online at ccrane.com/ccobserver Satin soft rubber finish. Weight: 1 lb. Size: 7.25" W x 5.5" H x 2" D.
