[Electronics-talk] And This'll Be Radio Number 3 Folks

If there are two screws holding the belt clip on, and the person doesn't use 
it, then it could be taken off and the battery cover could be accessed more 
easily.  I, personally, hate belt clips and have no use for them, so I take 
them off when possible.  Pam.

I'm not sure which model of C Crane radio a friend has, but it is a pocket
sized AM/FM radio.
It sounds good, but the only drawback is the cover for the battery
compartment.  Due to it being situated near the belt clip, it was kind of
difficult removing it.
I've seen other C Crane radios and none of them had battery compartment
covers situated like this one.  Most were your standard slide-off kind.
And, the belt clip is made to stay affixed.  There are 2 screws holding it
on.
Just thought I share that.  Hopefully, if you do choose to get one of their
radios, you won't have any troubles with changing the batteries.
