The 'new' Etón E1 AM/FM Shortwave Receiver with XM Satellite Radio

The 'older' Grundig Satellit 500 and 700 Radios

I do not know of a 'portable' AM/FM Shortwave Radio being made
today that can compare to the Build Quality of one of the 'old'
Grundig Satellit 500 and 700 Radios.

TBL - The Build Quality of the Etón E1 AM/FM Shortwave Receiver
with XM Satellite Radio is as good as (IMHO Better Than Most)
any Plastic Cases 'portable' AM/FM Shortwave Radio being made
today [.]

But - IMHO - The Performance of the Etón E1 AM/FM Shortwave
Receiver with XM Satellite Radio is 'superior' to both of the
above 'older' Grundig Radios.

FWIW - I do not own a Grundig Satellit 500 and 700 Radios;
and I have only handled and play with (listented to) a Grundig
Satellit 700 Radio for a few hours about a two years ago.
A very impressive Radio. Note - This guy had gone through
three eBay Grundig Satellit 700 Radios to find a keeper.

He compares the Eton E1 Radio to :
* Grundig Satellit 800 Millennium
* Sony ICF-2010
* Sony ICF-SW77

FWIW - I had read Jay Allen's fine Review about three times before
doing my own brief Side-by-Side in the Park with the Eton E1 Radio
and the Sony ICF-2010 Radio. My 'impressions' of the two Radios
paralleled Jay Allen's findings.
* Yes - The Sony ICF-2010 Radio is the "More Sensitive" radio.
* Forever - The Eton E1 Radio has more built-in "Features" (Tools}
to Listen with 'to hear' difficult-to-hear signals.

Once Again - Read Jay Allen's "Review" of the Etón E1 AM/FM Shortwave
