If you're going to jerk your customers around in
such a brazen way for close to a freaking decade


Yeah, I guess we first saw the Satellit 900 ads in, what?, the '96
Passport to World Band Radio? Then, nothing! I think that a lot of us
had simply stopped thinkin' about the '900 until The Shortwave Store in
Canada in 2000 or 2001 posted something about the forthcoming release
of the '900.

The real buffoonery began in late 2002 when we started seeing pictures
of the E1 in the couple of months preceding CES 2003. It was from
there that things really degenerated with multiple, multiple missed
release targets.

Of course, the '900 as designed by Grundig never saw the light of day:

http://www.satellit700.com/900/900lcd.html
http://www.satellit700.com/900/900label.html

The E1 is an entirely different radio altogether.

The E1 seems to be an SW8 in a *Grundig* Sat900 case plus XM added.

So far as I can tell, Eton doesn't have one whit of respect for its
customers, which is also probably why it resorts to silly tricks like
E1 to sell more radios to the untutored buyer.


Seems to me that Eton is bending over backwards to make their problems right
for their customers.

Common sense will tell you the same thing at considerably lower cost.
Either a bad batch of components (high on the list) or a change in
manufacturing process ( much lower but possible).



Either with the parts or with the personnel or with the procedure. It
is usually a person.
We had a problem here at work with a valve traceable to a supplier who
had an untrained summer student for about a month who did not get
trained on a small critical detail.

This is typical KT Problem Analysis, look for what changed on the the
Time Line for this radio production

That is old wine in new bottles. It was seen previously as TQM, QA and
all the other acronyms consultants made millions from.
