Paging through Discovery Magazine, I saw a full page ad for Eton AM/FM/SW/XM-Ready radios so checked out the web site (www.etoncorp.com) only to find that most of the product line was Grundig, a line which has not fared that well in list reviews. I did take a look at the Grundig Satellit 800 ($500) and was intrigued to read this: "External antenna connections for the addition of auxiliary antennas, e.g. professionally engineered shortwave antennas; long-wire shortwave antennas; specialized AM broadcast band antennas for enthusiasts of AM DX’ing; FM broadcast band antennas; air band antennas." There are just not a whole lot of radio writeups which actually refer to our hobby. I am not contemplating buying one of these but am curious if anyone out there has one or has played with one.
