 Mostly a Shortwave overview August 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this one (the E10), the Grundig/eTon 1100 (around $50), the Grundig/eTon 350 large (field) radio, and the Freeplay wind-up/solar "Summit" shortwave radio. I returned the Freeplay wind-up/solar "Summit" and Grundig 1100 radios because they hardly picked-up one or two Shortwave stations. (By the way: the ease of tuning of the Am and Fm was super on the Grundig 1100). As for the two I kept: This E10 had the same ability to pull in shortwave stations as the '8-10 times larger' Grundig 350 "field radio", but with the 350's much larger speaker, I could hear the stations a little more clearly. But if you want small size, and good shortwave receptivity, the E10 is the choice, for around $100. But don't expect any shortwave radio under $100 to pull-in stations during the daytime inside an apartment/concrete building.
 Strong Performer on FM and AM with Good Ergonomics April 5, 2006

I've toted several radios to my work office, which thanks to thick concrete walls and all sorts of electronic gadgets, is a high-interference nightmare for all my AM/FM reception needs.
The Eton E10 is strong on all bands at home but in my office it gets weak FM. However, its saving grace is its strong AM, which performs even better than my big Grundig S350 and my Kaito 1103.
So I'm using my E10 as my sole AM receiver radio and my Grundig S350 for my FM needs.
For home use, the best PLL dual-conversion radio with presets is hands down the Kaito 1103, which has jaw-dropping FM sensitivity and beats the Eton E10 easily in the FM department. But for AM my E10 has been my strongest performer.
Update: I just bought a Grundig G4000, which is by far superior to the E10, both in reception sensitivity and speaker sound. The modern look of the E10 makes it tempting but don't be fooled: Get the Grundig G4000. It's as sensitive as my big Grundig S350 DL and that's saying a lot. Plus I've got preset memories.
Additionally, the Grundig G4000 separates AM stations better than the E10 and the S350. Here in Los Angeles 1150 gets two stations competing on the E10 and the S350, but the G4000 locks in on 1150 AM perfectly.
