Many thanks to a number of SWLing Post<\/em> readers who have pointed out the recent update from Universal Radio regarding the availability of the Eton Elite Satellit.<\/p>\n

Per Universal Radio<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\nEton expects this new model to be available in 2021. Beacause of the date uncertainty we are not accepting web pre-orders at this time. Please check back in 2021.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

i can’t say I’m very surprised by this since we really haven’t had an update on this model in such a long time. That and, of course, the Covid-19 pandemic has really botched up design, production, and the supply chain for so many products.<\/p>\n

I’ll admit it: I’m a bit bummed. I was really looking forward to comparing the new Elite Satellite with my recently acquired E1 XM<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
