There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have had some months to use this now, an still give it 5 starts. A few key fidings:
1. You may read that this has poor battery life. Not true, so long as you turn off the display when not in use. There is a setting for that, and if left one at full brightness, the batteries do get drained. So just be sure to set the display at the default setting (reamins on for about 10 seconds, and then shuts down).
2. For new SW users, timinjg is everything. I pick up Asian stations in the morning, 900 to noon. I pick up ham operators in the early evening. Stations simply have their own unique schedule, like a New Zealand station (11725), awesome station, I usually get this very late at night (Mountain Time USA), weekends, but it comes in really clear, with music, politics, great stuff.
3. On YouTube, search for "how to save statiions on eton elite executive" and there's a great how-to video there by a fellow, he does a really nice job of explaining and showing how to save your various stations and frequencies (all bands). Also how to label your pages. One you do it a few times, it's really easy.
4. Finally, I called Eton once with a question about the line-in. They got back to me, they called me back, it's still a weird feature IMHO as I list below, but what I did learn is that Eton is pronouced "ee-tahn" (emphais on the second syllable).
So after some months of use, I enjoy the radio more with time, woth every penny.
Original review
Briefly, this is a great radio. I don't have much experience with short wave radios as points of comparison, but here are my experiences with this radio after almost a month, in no particular order:
1. I love the leather cover, I never take it off, look at the product pictures, it serves as a stand. It covers the face of the radio when not in use. Very functional.
2. Audio quality is outstanding, the audio output. The speaker is very small, limited range obviously, but I have connected good headphones and multiple speaker systems and the sound is just terrific for music. I have listened to a wide variety, classical, jazz, great highs, a solid bottom end. You can use either the headphone or the audio out jack for audio output, I use the latter, very similar to a standard FM tuner.
3. The audio-in feature battles me, it is only one channel, and I see no use for it. A mystery.
4. The instructions are not well written, but the information is there, it just takes a couple of times through. But this could be improved.
5. People complain it is a complicated radio to operate. I see that more as a reflection of its rich features; there is plenty to learn.
6. I get a gazillion AM stations.; I get a good number of FM stations (I do not live in a large metropolitan area) with good reception.
7. I am exploring the shortwave bands, I have picked up radio New Zealand, North Korea, China I think, many Spanish-speaking stations, and lots and lots of bible folks. Little in the way of European or African stations thus far. I now better understand why short-wave listening is a bit of an art, as reception varies a lot based on time and atmospheric conditions.
8. SSB was a bit of a mystery, but it works great while listening to ham radio operators.
9. Aircraft band is fun; I live about 60 miles north of Salt Lake City and pick up the local airport as well as the Salt Lake Center and aircraft with whom it interacts.
10. Great battery life, and the built-in battery charger is great and easy to use.
11. Finally, IMHO, this is a nice-looking and well-constructed radio, well designed in appearance, features, controls. It amazes me how the screen adapts to sunlight and shows up in a blue screen. Very cool.
All in all, totally pleased. A lot of attention to details and features. I always like have a radio available especially for emergencies, but this radio I used almost daily at this point. This radio has a great pedigree.
I'll be comparing this to my Tecsun PL-880 as that is considered a very good receiver and has served me well, although at nearly twice the cost. MW (AM) and SW are pretty much neck-and-neck in reception with the Eton, maybe, having the slightest advantage over the PL-880. Obviously, the Eton does not have SSB and the PL-880 does. That's okay. I have other radios (Alinco SR8T, PL-880, GE 7-2990A) that cover that spectrum should I choose to venture off into the side band world which is mostly just boring old guys rattling on incessantly about their radio equipment and complaining about new Ham's. The Eton has a wide band/narrow band switch and with the bass and treble controls, you can really dial in the sound for your ears which is great for someone with tinnitus and deafness at 8 kHz (wear ear plugs, kids). I'm near Dallas/Ft. Worth and we have one of the largest markets in the world so there is no shortage of stations, close or far, to try and search for. Unfortunately, my physical location and the radiant barrier in my house causes SW to be hit-or-miss but, still, the few stations I can get came in as well as possible using the stock aerial. I haven't tried it with a long wire yet although I did connect it to my outside GMRS base antenna got a few of the closer SW stations in a bit clearer so the antenna connection does work.
FM reception is fantastic with this radio, easily surpassing the PL-880. In scan, the PL-880 has a tendency to stop on dead-air stations which the Eaton filters out. I didn't even extend the aerial, just raised it into position, and it was pulling in stations very well. Connected to my external GMRS antenna about 18' in the air outside my house caused the Eton radio to pull in crazy amounts of FM stations. It's quite the FM DX'er.
The bluetooth connection on the Eton is quite nice. Presently I have my iPhone paired streaming a station. No problems, it hooked right up and sounds great. It only receives, not transmits.
The instructions on the Eton were just fine and easy to read. About 10 minutes of unpacking, and scanning the little manual and I felt like I was a pro with this radio.
It runs on 4 D batteries so with moderate volume control and reduced bass response, they should last for a very long time. I don't have a time frame on this one, yet, but in my GE which uses the same 4D setup, the batteries went bad before they went dead, probably about 8 years. Of course, when not in use I do not store alkaline's in any equipment, leaving them in a container beside my radio which was fortunate since they started leaking. I, typically, don't like digital displays as they trickle-drain batteries but this Eton seems to be okay, completely blacking out the screen when not in use - as long as you flip the 'display off' switch on the side - although you can still faintly see the time and battery meter. Time will tell how long a set of batteries last. It would be nice to be able to charge a set of rechargeable batteries though the radio if plugged in with the wart but not so with this radio. The PL-880 uses a single 18650 battery recharged though the side with a 5v wart or battery back.
The tuning on this radio is a bit clunky and annoying. The knob does not have a recess for your finger allowing you to be able to spin without your finger slipping off when using fine tune and the fast tune is just meh. It some sort of geared mechanism but not very smooth and can be a little jerky. It appears the best way to tune this radio is by using the up/down arrows (hold for 1 second and let go). Also, it doesn't have a continuous scan, stopping on every station and forcing you press the arrow again to start a new scan. The PL-880 has a 5 second hold on the scan and moves to the next station.
This radio has 10 presets per selection. Really? 10 presets? There is also no auto search (which why would there be with just 10 presets?) so if you take it to a new area, you can't automatically scan the waves and load the stations in that area.
I really like this radio as it feels good in the hand and it sounds fantastic. An included protective case would be nice although I see the one for this radio is here on Amazon for an additional $40+. I do recommend this radio, highly.

Consulte en Eton.com las Especificaciones Técnicas pero no encontré los suficientes datos como Sensitivity - SSB, AM (20,10 dB S+N/N). pV, uV (10 dB S+N/N) (1000 Hz. 30% Mod)), (Frequency Stability & Accuracy), Image Rejection. para conocer la Calidad de la etapa de RF esperada del Receptor por comprar, en las Bandas AM, SSB. tuve expectativas que superaria la Sintonía de la Banda Corta de mi antiguo Receptor GRUNDIG SATELLIT 800 MILLENNIUM el cual con las Antenas internas pude sintonizar señales de emisoras lejanas que el Eton 750 no fue capaz de igualar en prueba paralela en el mismo horario; por ello deduzco que la Ganancia en etapa Preamplificadora de RF del Eton 750, es baja para igualar la sintonía que radio receptores con tecnologías de años de anteriores. tiene buena separación de estaciones y control de Ganancia RF. los controles de Atenuacion de antena y Squelch funcionan bien, con excepción de la baja Sensibilidad para sintonizar estaciones débiles.
PROS
• Sensitivity in SSB (single side band) is similar to desktop general coverage receivers. The ability to change bandwidth is an advanced feature that can help in improving the intelligibility of SSB signals, and works well. Frequency stability (important for SSB) is very good. See CONS below for a note about entering SSB.
• Shortwave broadcast sensitivity and sound quality is excellent. Bandwidth adjustment helps reduce the effects of adjacent channel interference and/or noise. Bands can be accessed quickly by the “F” buttons, or you can let the radio scan and automatically stop at a strong signal.
• Medium Wave (AM broadcast) sensitivity is also excellent. Again, the ability to change bandwidth helps with adjacent channel interference.
• Long Wave is not used much in North America, so I have no comments on it at this time.
• The FM band includes RDS (Radio Data System) similar to that found in modern car radios. This identifies the station and the music playing and scrolls it in the display. While this radio only has one speaker, the stereo sound on headphones is very clean and full.
• The aircraft band is surprisingly good. Portables I’ve owned in the past that include this band were terribly insensitive. The sensitivity of the Elite is as good or better than that of my ham radio VHF/UHF transceiver which also receives the aircraft band. Bandwidth filtering is also available on this band.
• Squelch (to silence noise when no signal is present) is also included, and works on all bands. This is particularly nice when listening to communications (SSB or aircraft) that tend to be intermittent. It also serves as a ‘mute’ on FM to silence the radio hiss between stations when tuning the FM band.
• 700 memory locations in 100 pages of 7 each to store favourite frequencies. Pages can be labelled (eg. AIR BAND, FM1, FM2...)
• Line In/Out jack to play an mp3 player through the radio’s speaker or to record off the radio, respectively.
• For someone who is interested in getting into short wave listening or aircraft monitoring for the first time, save some money and buy one of these radios instead of a more expensive desktop receiver. Performance is on par, although it may not have all the features found in a desktop.
CONS
• While the leather cover is nice, it’s only practical for protecting the front, top and back of the radio while travelling. I would have preferred a more practical soft lined pouch.
• The manual is misleading on how to enter the SSB mode. It states that you have to quick press the SYNC/SSB/RDS button twice, but all this does is put the radio into SYNC mode. SYNC is the worst feature of the radio and is poorly implemented. It’s meant to help with minimizing the effects of fading broadcast signals, but is terribly distorted. Ignore this instruction (and avoid using SYNC for listening to broadcasts!) and simply quick press the U/LSB button above it to enter SSB. You can then toggle between upper and lower sideband with this same button.
• After just a couple of weeks of gently swivelling the telescoping antenna about, it has become quite loose where it enters the radio, causing the antenna to wobble as you move the radio.
• I sent Eton Customer Service a note about the antenna wobble and several days later, not even an acknowledgement of my issue. This may be an indicator of what to expect if warranty issues ever come up.
• For setting the clock, avoid using RDS AUTO. Set it manually. If you use RDS Auto, the radio reads the RDS data from local stations (if they are transmitting this data) and automatically sets the radio’s clock. Depending on whether the station you are tuned to has properly set their time, you may find that going from one station to another will result in your clock time changing. This is the fault of the radio stations and not a fault of the radio.
Overall, this radio is an excellent buy, particularly when the price is reduced on Amazon. It’s also generally cheaper than its competitors (TECSUN, SANGEAN) for radios with similar performance/features.
Contras: en batería no dura mucho, se recomiendan baterías recargables. El adaptador de corriente es enorme y con un cable corto, es ventaja que sea un adaptador especial para filtrar el posible ruido producido por la corriente eléctrica. Cambiar de frecuencia, sobretodo en onda corta, puede ser un tedio solo con las perillas, pero con paciencia se aprende a aprovechar las ventajas de la memoria. Por cierto, la memoria es de 10 estaciones por banda, lo que me parece muy corto considerando que hay radios portátiles que guardan hasta 500 estaciones en memoria. Finalmente la radio pesa un tanto, no es absolutamente portátil.
En fin, si eres diexista y buscas una radio que además para diexismo sea para escuchar radio local o usarlo con Bluetooth o auxiliar y que además se ve muy mono como radio en una estantería o en una mesa y cuyo sonido es muy bueno: está es tu opción, no es decepcionante.
