what do the users say ??

1599 euros...


I'm not a user but I'll say this: "Too Expensive!"

I look forward to an affordable DRM receiver, if it is truly the future
of shortwave.


DRM = QRM

Currently, yes. But someday, from the looks of it, DRM will =
International Broadcasting for the most part.

Believe me, I'd rather set back a few years (heck a few months when I
could still "steal" the 5975kHz BBC broadcast to Central America... but
DRM has got to get a whole heckuva a lot cheaper if it is be the
transition.

Until then, the Sat 800 will be the last SW radio I buy (well, there is
that Degen 1108 supposed to be out by the end of the year...)
