Grundig Satellite 750 Review
If you are looking to buy a shortwave radio with a more classical look but with cutting edge capabilities when it comes to sound quality and signal reception, you should take a look at the Grundig Satellite 750 model. It has a powerful rotating antenna with a freedom of 360 degrees, allowing you to receive even faint signals and you can store up to one hundred of your most used radio stations. It usually comes with headphones but the internal speaker is has is quite powerful for its size. Additionally, you can use it as a speaker for other external devices such as CD-players, I-pods or computers. The Grundig 750 Radio covers a band ranging from 88 kilohertz to 104 megahertz.
One of the things that customers love most about this model is its smart preset memory that allows you to save every radio station with its own preset, depending on the type of music it plays. The interface for this is very user-friendly and comprehensible, compensating the short instruction manual it comes with.
The Grundig Satellite 750 is very easy to carry around with you due to its retractable handle, so you can take it with you anywhere you decide to go. Another great addition to the previous designs is the signal strength meter placed next to the display. This meter is able to show you the strength of the input signal, regardless if you are using the machine as a radio or merely as a speaker. It can be a very easy way to check a transmission cable for flaws.
Even though some of the dials buttons on it are rather small, the design of the radio makes them easy to press or turn. The same thing can be said about the speakers. Though it may not be the most powerful in the world, the sound is crystal clear and more then decent for its size. The display panel of this model is easy to read, so you can always check out just how much of the battery you have left, what kind of signal you are able to receive in your area, whether you are on or fm stereo, a clock, etc.
The power consumption of the Grundig Satellite 750 model is rather small, therefore you will be able to enjoy it a long time before having to recharge its batteries. Customers have found that the best battery performance can be attained by using 4 D-cell batteries. Even though it has no options to recharge the batteries while they are still inside the radio, the low power consumption more then makes up for it.
In conclusion, the Grundig Satellite 750 is a sturdy radio, with a classic design, perfect reception of any signal no matter how faint, with good speaker quality and with a high degree of portability. Anyone who has tried it, would not leave home without it.
