Essential Info

Combine these features with a highly tuned playback system designed to recreate the human voice accurately, and you get the ultimate talk radio listening device!

Note: This Radio receives Analog TV signals and when this changes to digital, it will no longer be able to receive the TV signals.

  • Instructions
  • More Info


    Although the CCRadio Plus, Platinum Edition offers dozens of features, perhaps its most significant is its short-wave receiver-quality reception of AM radio stations up to 300 miles away. Its reception is so powerful, the CCRadio Plus, Platinum Edition has even been known to pick up radio signals from Hawaii all the way from the mainland.

    The CCRadio Plus, Platinum Edition also makes it easier to tune into programs on more than one station. For example, you can tune in one station and set the radio to switch to another station automatically at any time you specify. It's perfect if the talk radio show you listen to in the mornings is on a different station from the sports news you want to hear in the afternoon.

    This new and improved version also features an updated external radio jack and FM stereo sound to the headphone jack. A lighted LCD display indicates battery life, time and station, with a signal meter that lets you tune your favorite station for the best reception in your area. Choose to wake to an alarm or the radio, or hit the snooze button for a few more minutes of sleep.
    Other features include:

    • 1 KHz fine-tuning
    • External antenna jack can improve reception in a metal or brick building
    • Audio input and output jacks
    • Timer for taping programs or automatic station switching
    • Activated weather alert switches to weather band immediately when alarm sounds
    • Varying tones indicate FM, AM, TV or Weather band, ideal for the visually impaired


    The radio is powered by the included AC adapter or via four (D batteries) (sold separately), which will power the radio for more than 250 continuous hours. CCRadio Plus, Silver is also available in black mica.

    Static was extremely noticable. Did not bring in AM stations any clearer than my ordinary AM radio.
    MICHAEL -- salinas, CA   8/16/2009
    meets my needs to a tee. great sound and gets all the stations i wanted. the cc radio plus is perfect for me! thank you very much!!!
    EDWARD -- wareham, MA   6/11/2009
    It's a great radio and the second one we own. After six years the earphone plug in the first one wore out but the radio still works perfectly with the speaker and has just been moved to another room. It's the only radio we've owned for our house of thirty years that gives us adequate radio reception. You don't give us enough "stars" to indicate just how good it is.
    CHRIS J -- friday harbor, WA   4/10/2009
    so far so good. hopeful the electronics will hold out. sad that the t.v. analog stations are going away.
    WENDY -- dows, IA   1/9/2009

    DOROTHY J. -- indialantic, FL   10/4/2008
    The light up screen that shows the stations etc. is not very clear. Is this standard? Otherwise I LOVE the radio; it is sturdy and very lovely. Let me know about the light-up feature. Thanks, Dorothy S

    delivered on time and product lives up to its press.
    ARLENE -- oxford, MA   8/12/2008
    too many features I haven't been able to fully get it going yet.
    DONALD -- los alamos, NM   3/31/2008
    Well designed base so it isn't likely to blow over in the wind. Reception is a little better than the radios it is replacing and a big advantage is that reception is not just from one orientation of the radio. small size and clear sound are nice.
    HENRY -- new stanton, PA   3/23/2008
    She likes it
    HARRISON -- sebastopol, CA   1/10/2008
    Unfortunately, the product arrived with a crack in the sleeve of the volume knob. the vol. control works except that it falls off occasionaly. The packing seems very adequate, so the damage must have occured in the handling. We love the radio. We have an earlier ccradio which we have been very happy with, but has ceased to operate. We will shortly be returning it for R&M and I will continue to use it in my workshop.
    BOB -- mayflower, NS   12/24/2007
    Very please with the radio. Up to our expectation.
    PATRICIA -- mesa, AZ   11/30/2007
    Good sounding. Am a little disappointed that it doesn't get the a.m.radio station I listen to better. I live in a block home which is listed as problematic. Will save up for antenna.
    CATHY -- ellensburg, WA   11/23/2007
    I love this radio
    VINCENT -- lorane, OR   11/20/2007
    The radio is great, I've had another for years which still works perfectly but wanted this for another location. It is expensive for a Radio, but if you need good reception look no further than the CCC, it's worth every penny.
