Subject: Yes, you will need the new style CDC changer with the new radio Author: Brian (moderator) : member since January, 2005 : 6712 posts Posted on: 2008-03-13 15:50:42

Your old CDC will not be compatible with the new radio. It needs to look like the one in this picture, where the text on the door is only oriented in one direction.


What is the part number of your radio? Believe it or not, there are some early BM53 radios that did not have Aux input support.
