I was absolutely impressed a couple years ago with the than current ccradio.  the am reception in mid day within the center of a steel and Brick building knocked my socks off.  Will the ge do as well?

Stations were from 500 to 50 k and milage was 70 to 600 miles respectively.


Thank You!

That rip doesn't surprise me.  Crane surely does a lot of hyping of the
radios on talkshows -- something which is off-putting at the start in my
view.

My problem is that I've never been able to figure out where/how to buy
the GE Superradio.  I'd love to have one.
