Universal Radio and Eton's website display the Grundig Satellite 750
receiver. Looks interesting. 1000 memories A/C. AM, FM,SW and SSB.
It certainly does look interesting. I'm wondering what the tuning
resolution
is though. I hope it's better than the SAT 800's 50 Hz.
The display appears to resolve only 1khz which isn't enough for ssb.
It could be that there's fine tuning available that simply isn't
reflected on the display.
Sure hope so. 100hz would be a minimum.
100 Hz would be a disaster IMO for SSB.
If you look at the pictures carefully, you'll see in the lower left
corner of the fascia, a variable pitch BFO control.
Zero beat is possible without single Hz resolution.- Hide quoted text -

Possibly the 2000 differs from the DX750, but I don't see a BFO in
this picture. Lower left shows a Bass control. There is a USB/LSB
button which I assume switches between modes.

Sorry about that...lower right.- Hide quoted text -

We must be looking at different radios because lower right on the unit
I listed shows a squelch control. Maybe there is a difference between
the domestic and export models.
The picture you're looking at doesn't go low enough.

How much lower than the bottom of the radio do you want to go?


I'd kind of like to see the furniture.- Hide quoted text -

You can in the high-res picture.


It is not necessary 20 hz or 50 hz, a good ear is needed, you never
listen or did contest's with receiver to lamps and with the BFO moving
along in the dial?- Hide quoted text -

The export version of that radio has a bfo while the domestic version
does not. For the one without a bfo fine tuning well below 1khz will
be a requirement for resolving ssb signals.


Maybe be important 20 hz, I not sure, I initiate in the hobby in the
year 84' with a receiver hammarlund HQ-120, I like to play with the
knobs, clarify the HAM's stations with the bfo, I have a receiver JRC
525 and Kenwood R-5000 but I like more to take the HQ-180 hi, hi, this
receiver seems to be better than Satellite 800, that I do not have
doubts the 800 enter in this box of 750, for 300 dollars it is a good
price, and if listens better that the Sangean 909 is great. 73 to all
