NGWTIIIEXEC - Eton Grundig Executive Traveler III

Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2019

Verified Purchase

You have to be careful with Amazon descriptions. They, at times, publish the wrong information for the wrong radios. That is TRUE in this case. This radio is a $36 FM AM LW SW radio. It DOES NOT HAVE SSB or AIR BAND. It DOES NOT HAVE FULL SW COVERAGE FROM 1711 kHz TO 29999 kHz. It does not have a keypad for direct entry of frequencies. Radios with all those features cost considerably more! What it IS, is a VERY capable small travel radio with a world clock, sleep timer and travel alarm, lots of memories, coverage of SW broadcast bands from 120 Meters to 11 Meters plus the FM and AM broadcast bands. It uses standard AA batteries which are easy to obtain. Its sound is surprisingly good for its small speaker. For Amazon's discounted $36 it is a DEAL and compares well with other $50-$100 radios! I have a number of small portable radios from Tecsun, Xhdata, and various Chinese makes. Each has it's good and bad points - none are perfect. This radio has more good points than bad and to me it's a keeper. One thing though about buying from Amazon - if you don't like it for any reason it is easy to return for a refund!

Good Small Radio

Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is the older version of the current Eton Elite Traveler. The only difference that I am aware of is the color. This older color is silver whereas the current version is dark grey and black. While I do tend to prefer the current version colors, this one is available for 15 to 25 dollars less. After receiving this version, I do find that I actually like the silver more than I thought I would. Be aware that this is a small radio at 5.25 inches long by 3.5 inches tall. Mine arrived in perfect condition and after installing 4 aaa batteries, this radio has a very solid feel to it.
Here are the pros:
The radio has a nice, solid feel to it. I really like the display; it is a sharp looking amber with an adjustable back light. It has 500 presets, many more than I will ever use and which are recalled using the tuning wheel as the radio doesn't have any direct input buttons. Both the Volume and Tuning wheels have a detent which I like the feel of. While some have complained about the small buttons, I find them easy to use. If you ever travel overseas, the am stepping is selectable to be either 9 or 10 khz.
This radio does have cons:
I find the included cover to be of limited value. While it is nicely constructed, it limits the usability of the radio when it is on; in particular it limits the adjustability of the antenna. As there are no speaker cutouts, the only way to easily use the radio with it on is to fold it back and have the radio on it's back at a slight angle. For me, it is too much of a hassle and fortunately it is easy to remove as it uses magnetic catches to keep it on. Even for a radio of it's size, the sound is on the trebly and tinny side. Sometimes I prefer this as when listening to talk shows which is most of my listening. The sound is crisp, but any bass is totally lacking. Like other Eton radios, the power button is quirky. Sometimes it will respond to a single press and sometimes you need to press it twice. It's a bit odd, but I really don't mind it. Finally, the supplied user guide is poorly written and doesn't adequately document all of the radio's features. Abbreviations are used a lot with no explanation of what the abbreviation means, such as VF, VM, RDS and ATS (View Frequency, View Memory, Radio Data System and Auto Tuning Storage). While this won't bother a radio enthusiast, a casual purchaser might find this annoying. Despite some drawbacks, I do like this radio and if you can get it for less than 40 dollars I recommend it.

Small radio that performs like a bigger one

Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

Please note that this is a review of the Eton Executive Traveler AM / FM / LW / Shortwave Radio with ATS, (NGWTIIIEXEC). There are reviews of several different radios mixed together here. I think that the star ratings for this particular radio are unduly low as a consequence.

For a long time I have looked for a small radio that performs as well on AM as a larger portable radio. And, here it is. The Eton Executive Traveler is a great value and it offers truly impressive reception on all bands. I'm so glad I found it.

I compared the Exec Traveler side by side to my go-to larger portable, the Sangean PR-D19. AM performance was virtually identical. A huge compliment to the Eton. Pulls in 5 kW AMs at 200 miles during the day. That's not a mistake - it brings in the 50 kW AMs in the day at that distance too, of course. Has no problem with a non-directional 250 watt station at 55 miles. If you know AM, you know the significance of what I'm talking about, and of these daytime tests, which are far more indicative of a radio's performance than nighttime tests. (Skywaves will cause AM stations hundreds of miles away to come in like they're practically local on even the crappiest radio at night.) If you're an AM talk radio listener who is looking for a small carry-along radio that's not overly costly, look no further. This Exec Traveler outperforms the so-called "premium pocket radios" by such a huge margin that it's not even funny.

FM performance was about 1/2 of a hair's breadth weaker on the Eton than the Sangean, and this occurs because the Sangean has a much longer antenna. I could only discern this difference on one station out of the roughly 60 FM stations each radio gets at my location, so for most people this difference will be academic. Make no mistake, the Exec Traveler is a radio with top-tier FM reception.

Shortwave is hard to compare as the radios I compared this to are AM -FM only. I got several clean signals on shortwave at 10 a.m., which is very good.

I like the sound of this radio. It's crisp and highly listenable. Obviously it's a small radio with a small speaker so you won't mistake the sound for that of a much larger unit. Gets pleasantly loud so you can listen in a larger room without having the radio right next to you.

Leather wrap-around case is a nice touch. On mine, the magnets that hold the back part of the case to the radio don't line up perfectly with the corresponding points in the back of the radio, so I have given it four rather than five stars for material quality. The case is still very nice and it stays in place, making it fully functional, so the small misalignment is no big deal.

I love the reverse LCD with orange backlit digits. Looks cool. Also, you CAN see these displays in bright light: Just position the radio so the sun or other light source shines straight at the display and you'll see it fine without the backlight even being on.

World time with the rotating selector is fun to play with. I also like the ambient temperature display. It shows the temperature in the room, of course, not outside (unless you're listening to the radio outside).

Update: Having owned the radio for a few weeks now I wanted to offer an update on battery life, as I've noticed that some reviews are saying this radio has poor battery life. I have found the battery life to be excellent, but people might be getting poor battery life if they're not making certain that the display is off when the radio is turned off. Pressing the "snooze/light" button when the radio is on or off will keep the display backlight on continuously, allowing the user to select a bright or dim backlight that's always on regardless of whether the radio is on or off. I like this feature because you can use the radio as a bedside clock if desired. However, the design of the leather case, which covers the display when it's closed, could cause a user not to notice that the backlight is staying on even if he or she doesn't want it on. Unless you want the backlight on constantly, verify that the display turns off after the radio has been off for several seconds. If it doesn't, short press the snooze/light button repeatedly until the display turns off. If the display is not inadvertantly left on, I have found this radio to offer at least 50-60 hours of play (at moderate volume levels) on a set of alkaline batteries and virtually the same lifespan with good rechargeables such as Panasonic Eneloops.

The Eton Executive Traveler AM / FM / LW / Shortwave Radio with ATS, NGWTIIIEXEC, is a crazy good value and a very strong performer. If you want a portable that's only slightly bigger than the standard-size pocket radios, with about five times the performance, this is the one to get.

Nice radio

Reviewed in Canada on December 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

I bought this on the Amazon Warehouse deal and got it at a very cheap price. It is quite compact and will be good for Caribbean travel this January and for the beach in the summertime. The AM and FM band work well, but not so sure with shortwave, because there are not many stations broadcasting anymore.
The listing says that it comes with a 'Micro-USB cable with AC adapter'. This is not true! I ended up buying a power supply. It is the Outtag 36W Regulated Muti Voltage Power Supply 5V 6V 7.5V 9V 12V 13.5V 15V 2.4A 2400mA AC to DC Switching Adapter, I set it to 6 volt and the radio powered up without any problem. The radio does not have any USB input, but a tip input which the purchased power supply has. I can either use four AA batteries or ac power. Update: I come to realize that if the radio is plugged into AC power, there is a lot of static and a "humming sound" on shortwave, so use the battery power for that. Overall, I am happy with this radio.

Not very good.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2019

Verified Purchase

Sadly, this is not a good radio, although it does look nice. I was misled by the hundreds of reviews on Amazon.com where it isn't clear that reviewers are actually reviewing an entirely different radio. I am used to equipment going by different names when it is sold in different global regions, so I made the assumption that the slightly different names still applied to this Eton set, especially as Amazon linked their .com reviews to this radio.

Sound from the small speaker is fine on FM, but plug in a set of headphones and this reveals how poor the audio quality really is, there is so much noise as to make headphone listening virtually impossible, and I live in a good signal area. SW reception is very poor in the UK, and intending purchasers who don't know about SW reception conditions will be extremely disappointed. The small whiplash aerial is woefully inadequate and as there is no provision to plug in an external wire aerial, viable SW reception is not possible. MW does better in the evenings, which is also the best time to try SW, but things don't improve much.

If you are a world traveller you will find the world clock feature a boon. Set your home location time and by turning the dial that is accessed by pulling down the front cover to the global zone you are in automatically displays local time. The radio set has an alarm and sleep function, but due to the dual function buttons they are not as slick to set as they are on my 20 year old Grundig YB 2000 and which, by the way, is a far superior set in every way despite its age.

It is possible that the SW facility may perform better in other parts of the world, but for UK listeners, you may as well forget it. So, basically, for the money you get a nice looking and small portable multi-band radio, with a decent FM performance only when listening via the speaker, but which is otherwise severely compromised in audio quality and radio tuning capabilities. But if FM is you main concern, auto tuning with RDS capability, and auto channel storage allocation does at least work very well. And if you wish to re-allocate a tuned FM station to a different storage number this is at least quite easily done.

The LCD display is very informative, including a signal strength meter and a temperature indicator (!), but having small buttons that double up on functions makes it a pain to use, and I found I was changing a function unintentionally at times.

In the end, this is an expensive radio for limited tuning functionality and compromised audio quality on FM. My advice would have to be to avoid.
