Vintage Sangean SR radios
Hi group.
I am a domestic MW fan since I live 300 miles inland. Have a Sony 29/ 39/ 49 trio and a home brew loop antenna. Spot with a Sangean DT-110 and DT-500. Lots of fun on long winter nights as

Re: Should this be soldered?
Very many thanks Steve, that’s much appreciated! This may have to go into the ‘spares’ bin I think, because battery drain is very rapid.

Looking at the diagram it does not appear that pad goes anywhere; if so then it doesn't matter if it's left unsoldered, and it wouldn't change anything if it were soldered. If the other side

Hi Johnny
Yes, I’m certain your Mini is a superior receiver, but like you I’m very interested to see how my new ‘toy’ performs, But for a mere £14 it doesn’t matter that much! I’ll update

Re: Eton/Grundig Elite Mini - Initial Observations
Hi FenDrifter,
The main reason I like the "Mini" so much is that is has an actual FM antenna.
I like that for FM DX'ing.
But I'm REALLY interested to see how the one that you purchased works, I've

With the radio off, hold the number 0 for about 2-3 seconds and you can toggle between 9/10khz frequencies.

Hi Johnny
I’ve just been looking at the online ‘handbook’ checking to see if the 9/10kHz spacing was selectable, but unless I missed it it isn’t mentioned? This seems odd as it’s marked on
