Guy Atkins Getting Frequent Drop-Outs on His New Insignia HD Radio

 

 

 

 

 

I bought this new model the day it became available at Best Buy.

The receiver looks nicer than the prior model, and I found the controls easier to operate with the touch screen too. However, actual performance was still very annoying with frequent enough dropouts of the HD signal to make listening a real pain.

There are quite a few HD FM signal audible here in the greater Seattle area, but despite the strength of the signals the dropouts are as bad as the prior first-gen Insignia HD radio. Sadly, this one went back to the store for a refund. I really wanted to like it..

"To all of our CCRadio-EP customers, I sincerely apologize for the delay of delivery of the CCRadio-EP. An optimistic delivery date is not realistic with any new product. We will be more realistic in the future about new products. We will have a new development diary to become more transparent as to the progress of a new product we plan in the future. Thank you for your patience and your trust you have extended C. Crane. The first container has arrived in port, we have cleared customs and we should get them in about one week. Robert C. Crane"
