Hi everyone,

Just a very quick question - can anyone identify the radio in the
background on the left of this photograph (the big black one)?

RHF once posted a picture/photo of The Worlds Best Radio.It looked good,
but it was a cheapo radio.

It has a playboy bunny logo above the tuning knob. Wonder if that's
original.

There's a manual and schematic for what appears to be a rebadged version

Seems like it was a popular candidate for badgework engineering.

Hello,

My father has the same receiver, but it indicates "soundmaster space
commander", bought in the Netherlands many years ago. The Playboy
bunny doesn't appear in my father's version.

If they used a photo of a playboy bunny instead of the logo they'd have
sold more of them.

Thanks everyone - I had no idea how to find the other brandings of
this model - thanks.
