You know I hate to see any product so badly bashed as CC has been on this
list.  I do pro-sound on the side and I'm in a list of about 2300 people
around the world that discusses, mixing boards, signal processing,
amplifiers, speakers, microphones, cables etc etc etc.  As I pointed out in
that list a couple of times that every product servers a purpose otherwise
it would not maintain any market share and would the way of the buggy whip.
Just as some automobiles are better than others and most people have
preferences of one over another, doesn't mean everything but there favorite
is a piece of junk.  If CC was as poor a product as some have eluded to then
they would have been out business years ago.

I personally wish there was a tried and true standard that every mfg must
adhere too in their advertising of all products but short of the magazine
publishers requiring such a standard it isn't going to happen.  Just imagine
QST, CQ, etc telling mfg that their ads were rejected because of misleading
specifications ... YEAH ... RIGHT.
