Can someone explain the differences between these two?

Was the Grundig version made when Eton aquired Grundig, just
still badged Grundig?

I've read a couple of informative reviews on the Eton, I think
it mentioned maybe the way stations locked in or something
about separation?

On Ebay and maybe JR's it seems the Grundig is about $100.00
more. The Eton sells for around $260. Is the build quality
that different? I have read that the size of the Eton can be
attributed to the Vintage look, that it didn't really need to
be the size that it is. Is the Grundig model heavier or
comparable build quality?

Any answers to this are welcome and appreciated, thank you.

Best regards

The last real Grundig Satellit 700 was made in Portugal from
around 1992 to 1995 . The current model 'Grundig' 750 aka as
Eton is actually a Tecsun HAM-2000 from PRC .

There are some trivial functionality differences between the
Tecsun and Eton/Grundig models.

But performance difference between the two are within the
tolerances of production/QC.
