New Grundig Satellite 750 !!!
 
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.

100hz in my experience delivers listenable if not perfect audio for
voice ssb. Two radios i'm familiar with, the Sony 2010 and Panasonic
RF B600 both used that resolution and both were perfectly capable of
producing good sounding ham and other voice ssb signals. 10hz or 1 hz
would allow selectable sideband listening to AM broadcasts, but my
guess is that this radio will not have that level of tuning
resolution.

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.

has Three Controls on bottom-right-front :
* RF Gain {Works for the AM/MW and Shortwave Bands ?}

* SSB BFO {Answer to the AM-Sync ? Question "NO"}

Please also note the [SSB] Button with USB/LSB

? Question - Is the simply Single-Side-Band (SSB) to be used
in conjuction with the SSB BFO Control -or- Is this a Selectable

Thanks for clearing that up. I kinda figured he was looking at another
picture and not the one I posted.

So for purchasers of the domestic version they get ssb capability but
no bfo? Or finer tuning resolution maybe?

The air band is all but useless. I would trade it for true usb and
lsb and finer tuning resolution. Now that the devil has shown himself
in the details it is clear there are way too many unanswered questions
about either the domestic or export version of this radio to get very
excited.

RF Gain
Preselector
Squelch

In Peter's, the Eton has

RF Gain
Squelch
SSB BFO

Two different radios.

I would agree especially when you can only tune-in
one Frequency at a time. Most scanners will do a
much better job by covering several Frequencies.

Well the Grundig Satellit 750 Radio is most likely the 'major'
new Portable AM/FM Shortwave Radio for the North American
Consumer Market in 2008.

At the $300 Price Point and with all of it's features the Grundig
Satellit 750 Radio will be the "Got-To-Have-It" NEW Radio for
My-Radio-Shack by many Shortwave Radio Listeners in 2008.

That's one of the real oddities IMO. The Sony 2001 had fine tuning and
then the 2010 didn't. I agree absolutely, 20 Hz minimum!

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
