Review: THere's really only one flaw, but it's a wonderful thing to own. - It's a great little radio. It's very small and would be really easy to take anywhere, to a game farm for a little entertaimnet when screens aren't an appealing thought. On a picnic, on a road trip or some other kind of small adventure. It has a great tuner, it has great features which help make it much easier to use, for instance it can scan for channels which makes it easier to find air band frequencies which are in use rather than having to scan manually, arrive at a frequency which is in use but not in use at the moment that you scan so there's nothing to hear and no way for an uninitiated listener to know that they are on the right channel so to speak. It has every feature one could want from aradio and then some. It has a sleep mode so if you're listening and you fall asleep the radio will turn itself off after a pre-determined amount of time (The one sleeping in this case is you, not the radio). A radio like this, which has a reciever that can tune into almost any frequency used for radio by people is a little window on a world that exists but is otherwise invisible. One can listen to CB or Ham radio and there are still people who broadcast tiny radio stations which exist only for a few hours a week. Hearing the converrsations between airline pilots is interesting too. There are things that happen way up above our heads, interactions between people up there, that we would otherwise be unaware of, and they're interesting. It's a great toy and an interesting and fun thing to have. It has a squelch feature, so that even when the radion signal is weak or subject to inteference the little radio can make it more audible and clearer to hear. It is genuinely a wonderful device, if you want to hear what humans, even ones who are quite far away, are putting into the world using radio waves, this thing is definitely on your side. It's unquestionable a tool you want to use for that purpose. It does chuff when it's tuned but it makes up for that by having an autotune feature (seek). The flaw? It's not that it's not a high fidelity device and that the speaker isn't a powerful speaker, which is something that's possible today but wasn't possible when this device was originally designed (Also it's quite charming and a little nostalgic that the speaker isn't the same thing that one might get in a bass boosted sound bar). The flaw is to do with the way batteries are dealt with by the little radio. It can charge batteries but very slowly, putting a couple of L-Ion rechargables in it would seem to be a good idea. But it seems that the radio chews through them even if it's plugged into the wall outlet. I've had to take the batteries out and put them into a charger a few times when I unplugged it from the wall and found that the batteries were dead. It isn't all that light on batteries and will flatten a set in two days or so from fully charged (Better batteries might last a little longer, the ones I've chosen are eveready which while reputable, well better batteries do exist), but if the charge circuiit isn't isolated and the charger doesn't keep up with the rate of consumption then the batteried will slowly run down even if the device is plugged into grid power. If you do get one and do take it on n adventure which will see you away from home for more than a few hours I'd say take a few extra batteries along so that you don't take the radio out to let it play music in the backgrouond and find that the batteries are dead.
Review: Great little radio. - A few first impressions after two days of ownership: My very first impression was that aside from it's metal speaker grill and leather cover, this radio feels a bit plasticy (but considering its price point is still very acceptable and solid). It was great fun for me to work my way through the manual to learn what all the buttons did. The display is well thought out and can be read with or without the backlight. The device as a whole is never really off. When it is "off" it continues to function as a clock and even show the battery strength and respond to button presses. It has a lock feature to prevent accidental button presses. The station memories are broken into very manageable seven station chunks called "pages". The pages can be alpha numerically named. The FM reception is excellent and it can automatically find all the local stations and put assign them to quick dial memory position. It picks up the RDS data for the FM stations that broadcast it which is very nice. The AM broadcast band reception works excellent and I enjoy picking up DX stations in the evening with great success. Even during the day the reception works very well for stations that are normally difficult to hear on other radios. I love the look of the case (...and the fact that it even comes with a case ..two thumbs up!), but... I have fought with its functionality. It gets in the way since it it does not function well as a stand and has no speaker holes. Headphones cure the speaker hole issue (which works very well) but it would be nice if the case had better stand functionality. The antenna movement is very smooth and has two swivel points. The swivels allow it to extend vertically out from either the top or the left side of the radio as it is laying on its back. I have used the aux input feature of this radio on some of my QRP ham radio equipment that only has headphone jacks and it is a great and useful feature (A.R.S. AA7JC). The short wave bands work as expected for a radio in this price range and the SSB modes work perfectly. LSB and USB are selectable and fairly easy to use. I really like the filter bandwidth feature that is available on all AM and SSB modes (really works well). The battery life has been good in as much that the indicator still shows full battery strength after two days of playing. I was pleasantly surprised that the wall wart that came with my radio appears to be a classic analog type (with an actual transformer) which is rare these days. In the wall wart world, this is a sign of quality. Analog power supplies are better for radios since they don't generate digital noise when tuning the shortwave bands. One really cool thing about this radio is it's excellent display. It was carefully engineered to show the most possible information without draining your battery in the process. Some sort of memory management software accessible via bluetooth would be a great design addition for this radio (if Eaton is listening) but overall this radio delivers an excellent deal at its current price point. Yes, I would buy it again. edited addition: The radio really works well.. especially when taken outdoors away from electrical noise inside the house. One BIG thing I ran into was a dyslexic error in the owner's manual. Eton reversed the instructions on how to copy/paste a single memory location with the instructions on how to copy/paste an entire memory page. I included pictures of: 1-owners manual goof-up regarding copy/paste 2-the way the antenna is able to telescope from the side of the radio via it's dual swivel 3-The way that you can see the display even with it's back light totally off (under good lighting conditions)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this radio transmit also or just receive?**
A: ON EVERY WAVELENGTH: The Etón Elite 750 "BROADCASTS"(transmits) every radio wavelength...the CORRECT wording is "RECEIVES" or "receives broadcasts".  This sort of word play has become common on Amazon (and other online sellers) and is not only MISLEADING & DECEPTIVE but very annoying.  If you can't perform the SIMPLE task of accurately describing your product, it makes me wonder what questionable manufacturing and Quality Control methods you are using.  Clean up your act, consumers deserve it.

**Q: Can you please recommend a specific model antennas for sw and lw. i know sw and lw will require 2 different antennas. also include outdoor and indoor**
A: The Eavesdropper-T trapped dipole antenna is designed specifically for the shortwave broadcast listener. You can attach one end to your house and the other end to a tree or even slope it down to the ground. The center tap runs to the radio.
For longwave, just a very long wire. as along as you can get.

**Q: Can you connect this to an externsl antenna for SW if you want.**
A: If you have space for it you can connect a SW antenna.

**Q: Where is this radio made?**
A: The tag on the bottom of the radio says, “designed in California, made in China “

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good, but complicated
*by A***R on July 27, 2024*

This is a quality radio, as it should be for the price. It's solid, 17 ounces with batteries, and has a good heft. I wish the operational buttons on the front were a little larger for my fingers and aging eyesight. So far, battery life seems to be OK, with the backlight set to off. The manual could be better with more detailed explanations. It appears to have been written for use by those with more short wave experience than I have. There is one error that a previous reviewer noted on page 14; item 4 should be included in item 3 before pressing the PAGE/TIME button. The auto tune feature could be better on the short wave channels. It will tend to by-pass stations I think it should stop on. For me, manual tuning is more effective on the short wave stations. The external speaker isn't the greatest, but I do like the sound quality with quality earphones. The RDS feature is marginal, giving very little info about the particular program playing for an RDS station. If you use the RDS feature to set the radio's time, that time will change with each RDS station you tune in. I haven't had much success with the Single Side Band frequencies; probably need an external antenna for that. Reception seems to be very good, indicating a quality whip antenna, Overall, this is a quality, feature rich radio, intended for those with short wave knowledge and experience. I would recommend reading the manual thoroughly.
