"The only flaw I see in the design is that they should
have left OUT satellite reception altogether."

I believe that the marketing scheme of XM Satellite Radio
has them provide a small fee to the manufacture of each
radio for each monthly subscriber.

So for each Eton E1 XM Radio that subscribes to XM Satellite
Radio per month.


XM Satellite Radio will send the ETON Corp. a Check.

Creating a Passive 'recurring' Residual Income after the
original sale of the radio. A second income source as
a result of the initial saqle of the radio.

I find the whole concept of that receiver to be flawed.

A real portable MW/FM/SW receiver with THREE MW/SW bandwidths,
selectable-sideband sync detector, PASSBAND offset tuning, separate
bass and treble controls, etc. etc., and you say the whole concept of
the receiver is flawed? Personally, I don't care about paying for
satellite radio. My main interest is in the MW/FM/SW bands which this
set might excell in. AND, designed by R.L. Drake. The only flaw I
see in the design is that they should have left OUT satellite
reception altogether. I would have kept it MW/FM/SW and made sure it
was the BEST portable available on these bands.

I did. As others have pointed out, I would rather that they had put their
effort into AM/FM/SW.

However, if they came out with a larger version that actually had speakers
on each end of the cabinet (heck, let's dream -- DETACHABLE speakers!) I
would be interested in one that included XM.
