Eton E-One-X-M (USA)
 

The first-ever radio to combine A-M, F-M, shortwave, longwave and X-M
Satellite Radio.

The Eton E-One-X-M sells for 500 dollars. But enthusiasts who want to listen
in on news of the world and enjoy high-quality F-M and satellite music
indicate it's worth it.

Measuring 12-by-seven inches and weighing about four pounds, this radio is
not exactly a Walkman, but it can be moved around the house, as long as the
satellite antenna can see the sky.

Its biggest shortcoming is that the E-One-X-M needs headphones or a second
external speaker to play F-M and X-M in stereo.

The radio will be in stores in May.

Hope you enjoy toting it.

And at the same time perhaps it will stop you from posting nonsense to various
shortwave groups, and preclude you from lifting others material and posting it
to said groups without attribution.

I have at least one or two or more old beat up old off the wall brand
names of radios here that I bought at the Goodwill thrift stores and
other junk shops for only a few dollars each that have
Longwave/AM/FM/Shortwave bands and Police bands and Aircraft bands and
some other bands too,but none of that xm crap.

We should emend this slightly:

The Eton E-One-X-M sells for 500 dollars, promises to yield portable
performance at a tabletop price, and will probably suffer from a wide
variety of technical failures. But enthusiasts who want to listen in on
news of the world and enjoy high-quality F-M and satellite music
indicate it's worth it.

I don't care about the XM feature, but I am curious to see how the
thing actually performs on shortwave. I think at this point the radio
can't possibly live up to all the hype and anticipation, but I'm
looking forward to seeing what kind of reviews it gets.

Only time will tell for sure, but my guess is it will perform about as
well as the Satellit 800 and other, comparable radios...no worse, no
better.

I'm waiting to see if it has triple conversion. Anybody heard about
this?
