Grundig Satellit 900) is a robust portable shortwave radio with many of the features and performance of a tabletop radio. The Eton E1 is no longer produced by the manufacturer, however they are still easy to find used (see links below).There were two models of this radio&#8211;the E1 and the E1XM. The E1XM had the addition of XM satellite radio built-in.<\/p>\n<h2>Specs:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li> Frequency Coverage: 100-30,000 kHz, includes shortwave, medium wave AM broadcast band and longwave; selectable 87-108 or 76-90 MHz FM broadcast band; XM Radio Satellit radio.<\/li>\n<li> Reception Modes: AM, FM-stereo, Single Sideband (selectable USB\/LSB) and CW.<\/li>\n<li> Digital Display: large 5.7 inch square, 240 x 320 pixel, dot matrix display. Shows all modes and selected functions.<\/li>\n<li> Programmable Memories: 500 user programmable with alpha labeling plus 1200 user definable country memories, for a total of 1700.<\/li>\n<li> Memory Scan Function.<\/li>\n<li> Digital Phase Lock Loop (PLL) Synthesized Tuning with Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) for drift-free frequency stability and finest tuning resolution.<\/li>\n<li> Dual Conversion Superheterodyne Circuit: results in minimized interference through superior selectivity.<\/li>\n<li> Excellent Sensitivity: yielding a true high-performance receiver.<\/li>\n<li> High Dynamic Range: allowing for detection of weak signals in the presence of strong signals.<\/li>\n<li> Selectable Bandwidths: 7.0, 4.0, 2.5 kHz for excellent selectivity.<\/li>\n<li> Single Sideband Synchronous AM Detector: selectable USB\/LSB or double sideband to minimize adjacent frequency interference and fading distortion of AM signals.<\/li>\n<li> IF Passband Tuning: an advanced tuning feature that functions in AM and SSB. Greatly helps reject interference.<\/li>\n<li> Tuning Modes: variable-rate tuning knob, direct keypad frequency entry, up\/down pushbuttons and auto-tuning.<\/li>\n<li> Direct Shortwave Band Entry, allows instant access to the shortwave band of choice. Selectable AGC: fast and slow mode.<\/li>\n<li> Display Backlighting: evenly lit backlight enables display viewing under all lighting conditions.<\/li>\n<li> Dual Programmable Clocks With WWV Auto-Setting.<\/li>\n<li> Dual-Event Programmable ON\/OFF Timers: can be used for recording or \u2018alarm clock\u2019 function.
