Operation
The Etón Satellite 750 or Tecsun S-2000 appeared as a successor to the Satellite 800 around 2012 and was manufactured by Tecsun in China until 2017.
This set, developed by Etón / Lextronix, was the first time that R.L.Drake's development team was no longer the godfather, the reception characteristics are significantly worse than those of the Eton E1 or Satellit 800, and of course the set has nothing in common with the original Grundig world band receivers except for the Grundig USA logo (on sets sold in the USA).
Technical principle
Double conversion superhet with PLL frequency synthesis.
Componentry
The set is equipped with semiconductors.
