While the recordings are stored on the TF card, they are placed in different folders on the TF/Micro SD card. ![]() Long pressing Play/Pause starts a memory scan with automatic storage. Stations can be stored manually by long-pressing the 5 key (sub-labeled MEMO), the number, and pressing Play/Pause. There are memory presets: 80 on FM, 60 on MW and 300 on shortwave. Stepping is quite slow, about 1 second per frequency change. You can also enter the frequency directly on the number keys and short press Play/Pause. Repeatedly pressing the SW button selects the various shortwave bands. The MP3 track controls double as tune up/down buttons, and long presses scan for the next station. It was a weak signal on my PL-330, but very weak on the on the ZWS-603 (with a shorter antenna), but it does demonstrate that the radio doesn’t mute very weak signals. I tried daytime reception of WWV on 15 MHz around noon local time. FM was good as was shortwave, not on par with my Tecsun PL-660, but still c0mpetitive. I could hear stations but all were very noisy. At midnight I could not get a single clear AM station. I’ll say right off the bat that AM performance sucks. ![]() Grundig eton g1100 digital world receiver radio full#As it comes, the full low FM range is available and the AM step is 10 kHz. This device is sold as a radio, and it is that. The user can pick a particular song by number, entering the number on the numeric keys. When plugged into the computer, songs can be copied directly to the TF/Micro SD card in the radio. It displays the file names on the screen. It has a the typical controls for Next track, Previous Track and Play/Pause. Grundig eton g1100 digital world receiver radio tv#I was readily able to connect the radio to my Samsung TV via Bluetooth, but I had to try twice before it showed up on my Windows computer. Grundig eton g1100 digital world receiver radio Bluetooth#Switching between MP3, auxiliary audio cable (supplied) or Bluetooth input is accomplished with a Mode button. Note that the radio cannot be used when the USB cable is connected to a computer, although it can be used when connected to a dumb charger. According to the advertising, it will also display lyrics for files with them. When playing a music file, the file name is displayed. I’m happy to report that music files inside directories are accessible by the radio. The radio became a speaker for the computer, and the TF card in the radio because accessible as a disk for the computer, where I could copy files. Grundig eton g1100 digital world receiver radio driver#Nothing happened except that the battery in the radio started charging however, when I explicitly followed the instructions by plugging in the supplied USB cable directly into the computer, Windows installed a driver for the radio. I plugged a USB cable into the radio and my Windows computer’s USB hub. In actual use, I didn’t find myself stumbling because of multiple use of a button (something that has been a problem with my Tecsun PL-330). The MP3 Next/Previous track doubles for up/down tuning in the radio, since it has no tuning knob (or knob of any kind). The volume control doubles as a “next station memory” button with a long-press to change the volume. Multi-use buttons are not unusual, but these will take some getting used to. The radio has relatively few buttons for its functionality, which means that many of the buttons serve dual functions. Just as MP3 players have a Play/Pause button, this radio uses the same button provided for its MP3 function to mute the radio. Grundig eton g1100 digital world receiver radio portable#One feature that I have never before seen in a portable shortwave radio is a “Mute” button. While the display is visible, the button labels are tiny and very difficult to read except in strong light. Also because of the dot matrix design, the radio can put up very large characters, including a very visible frequency display. It can switch languages and display English, Chinese and Japanese. This means that it can display menus and draw pictures. I’ve come to expect digital displays to consist of 7-segment digits, or predefined messages or bars on the display, but the ZWS-603 is a general dot-matrix screen. First, it combines a shortwave radio, an MP3 player, a sound recorder and a Bluetooth speaker. This one is not like anything I’ve used before in several ways. Zhiwhis ZWS-603 radio, Bluetooth speaker, MP3 player What’s unusual about this radio The ZHIWHIS XWS-603 appears to be the same radio as the HanRongDo K-603. ![]()
