↓ • The Executive/Executive Satellit is a fine little radio. I also have the E5 (among about a dozen others) and I rarely use the E5 any more. Compared to a competitor – the PL-880 (I have that, too) – I like the Executive Satellit because the SYNC actually works where it is an undocumented after-thought on the PL-880.

Given the street price of the PL-880 of around $159.99 and the Executive Satellit/Satellit being found for $100-$112, I would steer people towards the Etons for their value at that price. As far as the S-8800 – well – that’s like comparing a pick-up truck to 4-door sedan. They are so different in scope & size. You can haul a load of lumber with a pickup truck but gas mileage as a commuter vehicle isn’t practical.

You’d have to gauge your planned usage whether or not an Executive Satellit/Satellit is the way to go or the Tecsun S-8800.
