After about a year in service, my CC Radio EP is my "most used" radio at home. I have an older GE shortwave radio that gets a lot of hours at work.
Regarding the EP, I agree with everything in the review. Among new radios, it's a "best buy" in my mind.

I'd like to see some additional features on the CCRadio3:

1. FM stereo/mono switch (like the CCRadio-SW, CCRadio-EP and PR-D5), for better reception of weak stations

2. Longer whip antenna, for better reception of stations on the lower part of the FM band

3. Simultaneous display of frequency and time (like the PR-D7), or at least the ability to select the frequency or the time as the default

4. RDS (like the PR-D5)

5. Switchable 1 kHz/10 kHz steps via the tuning knob on AM (like the CCRadio-SW)

6. Wide/narrow AM filters (like the CCRadio-SW and CCRadio-EP)
