This is an exciting radio. If they were able to add DRM reception,
this would be a superb choice for the future of radio.


The future of radio, especially shortwave radio, is cutting costs. I
suppose DRM would be helpful to the extent that it would reduce the
electric bill at the transmitter.

Most broadcasters have found cutbacks in languages and programming
effective cost cutters. Some have pulled the plug on SW broadcasting.

Dave Frantz of WWRB likes SSB for reduced transmission costs.



And, of course, the "fact" that the feds are monitoring everyone on the
Internet so that the guv'ment can track down all of us spurious individuals
with Operation NotShortWave.

Also, acoording to our usual stoned sources, there is an upcoming event which
will be one of the most horrible things that has ever happened and from which
no one will recover, if our sources are to be trusted when they're babbling
like a mountain stream.


Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the grid: Y3K is on the way.
You'd best prepare now so that you won't be desperate when the new millennia
gets closer.

Also, Planet Y is getting closer and, even as I (attempt to) type this
missive there are rumors afoot (if not at hand) that Planet Z is hurtling
this way.

The Feds, the New World Order and Satan. Of course, that could be a
distinction without a difference.

No doubt. It's already happened about a dozen times already. And
that's just for 2003!

The new Eton E1 XM would be perfect for the remainder of this bleak
millennium, if it only had a wind up crank!

One can only imagine the terrors yet to come after the Y4K crisis. And
the most terrific imaginations will be found on Shortwave Radio!!

Sounds like he's putting his money where his extremely active mouth is.
I've heard the NWO intends to reduce the population by 50% or more! How
many of us are fit to belly laugh that scheme off?

Kind of answers questions about the highly anticipated, long
awaited vaporware called Satellit 900...this picture is of the same
case as the Sat 900 published by Grundig AG in '94.


Or was it '95








No price information I can find yet....




They (and you know how "they" are) say,
"Price: To be announced at CES 2004".

Just further proof that RadioShack has totally gotten out of the shortwave
receiver arena: they carry Grundig.

EM,

ETON Corp. has been building the "ETON" Brand Name in the "Rest-
of-the-World" where they do not have the 'Rights' to Market and Use
the GRUNDIG Radio Brand Name in the North American Consumer Market.

The Grundig Satellit 900 radio may never be . . .
= = = It may simply be the "ETON" E1 XM (AM-FM-SW) Radio.

Will the Anme "ETON" Sell in the North American Consumer Market ? ? ?
= = = Or Does the Brand Name "GRUNDIG" . . .
= = = Still Have The Sizzle that Sells The Steak ! ! !

As for me, I would rather Own a Grundig Satellit 900,

Does this unit not bear a more than passing resemblance to the
prototype of the Grundig Satellit 900?
