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.

Yeah, sure looks like it says 'SSB BFO'

I see the issue.

In RadioGuy's link, the radio has, from top to bottom,

RF Gain
Preselector
Squelch

In Peter's, the Eton has

RF Gain
Squelch
SSB BFO

Two different radios.
