GRUNDIG SATELLIT 500
SHORTWAVE COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVER
Looks Good - Works Great
Rare
Grundig Acrylic Cover Included
This auction is for a Grundig Satellit 500 that is in good used condition cosmetically
and excellent operationally (great sound and excellent reception. The sound is a
pleasure to listen to and the reception is outstanding. All controls and functions
seem to work as tested. Being a used radio it does have signs of wear and some small
scrathes on the LCD panel, the antenna seems to be a little loose when it is inside
the radio (in our opinion), the on/off switch is a little sticky. The acrylic cover
has many signs of use including some small scratches (better it than the radio).
The radio is a general coverage receiver that covers 140 Khz to 30,000 Khz continually
covering LW (longwave), MW (middle wave - AM) and SW (shortwave). Modes are AM/USB/LSB
and FM from 87.5 to 108 mhz. Digital PLL synthesized tuning via a keypad or a large
tuning knob.
42 alpha numeric memories are available. Two selectivity filters are available and
tuning steps are in 1 Khz or 100 Hz increments. Synchronous Detection helps reduce
the fading of shortwave signals while a dual AGC circuits keep the volume at an even
level. Alpha Named Memories will display the radio stations name on the large LCD
screen.
