Well the point about it all is that the radio can be updated, says so in
the specs I read on it so - if the radio does prove impossible to use -
then perhaps some updates can be applied in the future? I've decided to
take the plunge and order the radio anyway, see how far I get with it.
After all! you can only try and I'm not one of those blind people who just
sit and whine about how unusable everything is, even if I can only use the
radio then having a rechargable radio will be a God Send, its on special
at the moment and if the real worst comes to the real worst? Well I'm sure
I'll find someone who can use it <smile>.

I assume you're talking about the CC Witness radio? If so I just looked
at the manual and unless you can see it or have someone handy who can I
don't think you can use it. Everything appears to be menu driven
including switching from Am to Fm. You might be able to record at the
touch of a button but it doesn't look like much else is accessible.

Hi!
Does anyone have or has anyone tried one of these radio sets? According
to the information at www.ccrane.com the radio is supposed to record FM
and AM broadcasts in MP3 format, you're apparently able to set the bit
rate. The radio also sports a line in and microphone jack.
The CCrane Witness is charged from a USB port on your computer, when
its connected you can copy the files from the radio to your computer
for storage etc.
The radio has some programmable timers but I expect that we won't be
able to use those.
Anyway supposing most of it is usable then I think the price is a good
one and I may consider buying one, I'm not worried so much about the
timers, so long as I can "record" radio at the touch of a button or
two? Well that will suit me just fine!
As a footnote to all this, I purchased the CCrane EP radio and it
arrived just in time for Christmas, the radio is reviewed at
www.blindcooltech.com and I've also written some additional notes on
the set at my blog so feel free to read and comment.
